First time GHB use...

Hello I recently obtained some powdered GHB for self experimentation and enjoyment. As many of you know GHB is very dose sensitive and this concerns me. So my question is would it be a bad idea for a first time GHB user to use it in public at a club/rave or would the first time be best left to home use the first time? My question arises out of fear of taking too much at a rave tomorrow and either passing out or being too intoxicated. I was thinking of starting out at 1 gram and taking .5 grams in 45 minute intervals to test effects. If anyone is experienced with GHB your help would be greatly appreciated.
 
I would advise you NOT to do it in public the first time. I did, and fell asleep while standing in line outside the club. It is very hard to gauge the sedation from GHB usage when not experienced.

At the very least start taking the GHB a few hours before going outside so you get atleast somewhat used to it. And be very conservative about dosing when in public if you don't want to fall asleep suddently or become violently ill. The sedation hits fast and sudden if you overdose and there's no way to keep yourself awake at that point.

And don't mix with alcohol no matter how little you drink. Just one cider makes me puke all over the place.
 
No one can give you an absolute answer because we don't know the potency of your GHB, and we don't know or share your neurochemical or biochemical makeup.

With that said I would recommend you try it at home first. The doses you have set out for yourself are fine just leave longer intervals between titration such as an hour or more.

Once you become familiar with it you can take it outside as its definitely not something you want to overdose on in public. Even though GHB overdoses are pretty benign, their symptoms to viewers seem very serious, resembling exactly those of a coma.
 
I had approximately 6 ml of GBL spaced over 6 hours or so. GBL turns into GHB in the body. And i can confirm that a GHB overdose looks very scary for bystanders (but often isn't anything serious). They will most likely call an ambulance if you accidentally overdose.
 
Much like someone's first time doing any substance, it's best to do it in a private setting with a close friend or two around. This both helps keep you safe if something does go wrong, and prevents you from making an ass of yourself needlessly.
 
Well, is there any [real] reason not to test it at home first just to get a taste of what you're in for?

You might be offered some in a public setting. Perhaps you only have a limited amount of the substance. Perhaps your schedule doesn't have room for any testruns.

EDIT: And GHB is famous for its capability to produce a very strong urge to socialize with people (not to mention promote hornyness). When I took GHB/GBL my first time had I no intention of going outside. But when the GHB kicked in suddently going out seemed like an extremely good idea. And so I went to a club spontaneously without knowing the potential consequences.

This led to me falling asleep while standing up with a whole bunch of people around me. Extreme nausea. Getting very close to being arrested (thank god the cops believed me when I said I was only drunk) and not to mention signing up and paying a fee to a dating site for people already in a relationship (my girlfriend was outta town and I was hornier than ever before).

Perhaps would I have been able to suppress the urge to go outside if I knew how bad idea it really was.
