GBL Megathread 4: End of an Era?

It was good at first (like so many drugs), like euphoric booze, with added confidence, but after time I got no real decent effects, just kept taking it because it was there.

I really need to learn not to abuse things, because it just ruins the drug. (weed, ket, gbl, mdma etc)

You've ruined the same chemicals as I have. Just so you know.

So true.

My first few times on GBL felt almost like ecstasy. I just had a permanent grin and felt loved up.

After that it was still good but nowhere near as good as that.

First dose of the day is/was always nice but after that I was taking it just to feel normal more than anything.

Be very careful with GBL, I'm about 10 days clean but I've basically just swapped it for benzos and booze which is even worse really. With GBL you get into the habit of relying on being intoxicated frequently.
 
@ DS:

High five :) heh

What's next to ruin I wonder? Benzos possibly, but I think I got a grip on that recently... But MDPV makes me take more again, not a good thing. Which is why I need to stop taking it really.

I'd be interested in trying GBL again in a year, just a couple of doses and see if it feels as good as it did to start off, or close. Not in any rush to try it though, I can take it or leave it (once I found out I suffered withdrawals after stopping, i didn't take any more even though I had about 100ml left sitting on my desk) Would hate to be addicted to something and not be able to stop myself. I'd have to re-access how strong mentally I thought I was etc.

It was weed most nights for me, or booze if going out. Then Weed and GBL, then mostly just GBL, then when the G turned bad, back to just weed, occasional drinking. Then gave up weed, drunk way too much almost every night... then had a few benzos, then 2 weeks of being nearly completely sober (which was nice, felt better for it, not being as lazy, cooking meals from scratch doing more uni work)

Then the last 5 days I've had MDPV, and slowly realising that it's not helping me. I'm not doing it all day and all night, and have had nights sleeping, but also some awake, and eating very little. So yeah - need to stop that pretty sharpish now, or cut down immensely. But if I can't do that then I just won't buy it again. Need more self control!

EDIT: At least if I run out of something that i feel is damaging me, I won't rebuy. But if it's in the house I have been known to just keep using :( Weed is the worst offender. MDPV is looking like it could be another.
 
'With GBL you get into the habit of relying on being intoxicated frequently.'

Very, very true.

on the other hand, i tried ghb very recently after not having done gbl since december due to the ban, and i can very much understand how this drug can be used as a purely party drug as well

I'm planning on letting my ket tolerance go down and then ruining it again. It's going to take time but it'll be worth it.
 
Gosh I totally forgot I have some GBL left in one of my cupboards. Last time I did some it was a slight improvement euphory-wise. Anyway I've taken benzos today so i'll see on another day.
 
Ok, I'm gonna try one dose of GBL and see if it's still decent and if I still want to fuck a goat or my rug (or both).
 
when i first took it, everything seemed so easy, chatting up people, falling asleep and waking up refreshed and i didn't become physically addicted until 3 months of daily use.

at the beginning i even stopped smoking and read articles which mostly dealt with ghb and that it was not addicting.

then the frequeunt clubbing started, using g for come downs, as there was nothing better.

in the end, addicted for almost 5 years to it, with one 3 months and one 6 months break, but always substituting with other things, such as opiates, benzos and booze.

when addicted i had to take all the other drugs i took with g cause if not i would get withdrawl symptoms.

also started combining benzos, booze and g, as the 'high' was much better.

lost the g-magic forever. also after the 6 months break, i was physically addicted and woke up after 4 hours after the first day of consuming. must admit though that the first dose was nice, but then again it might have been the pleasant anticipation of taking it again.

resume: totally fucked up sleeping pattern, falling asleep in very inapropriate situations, some horrendous binges, some very nasty withdrawls and the fact that

which i have to deal with now.

guess in the end its only another gbl story. but i still think that gbl/ghb is one of the nicest drugs out there, just not for me anymore as i spoiled it for me.
 
I think that anyone that is thinking of trying GBL should do the conversion to GHB asap as the potential for addiction is a lot less. The high is also better and more controllable imo.

GBL is a sneaky drug when it comes to addiction creaping up on you...

true, but having tried ghb after gbl, i found the buzz ghb gives not as satisfying. It seems to hit much faster than ghb(also shown by shwon here and with gbl having a very short elimination half life and being rapidly converted into ghb in the body) and the buzz is 'harder' than with ghb, which i found to be quite mellow.

then again, gbl, as a drug with a fast onset levels the level for an addiction more than ghb.

when one wants to quite gbl by tapering, ghb is indeed very useful, as the tapering goes smoother than with gbl imo.
 
GBLs practically impossible to taper successfully if you're really addicted. Converting to GHB is worth it, but not much easier. Better off quitting the G completely and substituting benzos for 1-2 weeks. Just make sure you stop the benzos tho!
