Since there aren't too many experience reports with GHB yet, I thought why not contribute one of my own experiences. This experience report has also been posted on Erowid under GHB experiences, under the name of "warm legs"(couldn't think of a good title at that moment).

I always make my GHB myself, and always with the same recipe. I always make liquid Na-GHB at precisely 0,7gram Na-GHB per ml. But because I alway use the same recipe I am familiar with my own GHB. I always take the same dose, 5ml. Beware that other GHB might be a lot weaker or a lot stronger if it's liquid, so don't judge according to my dose. I also have to mention I drink some wine during my experience. Combining alcohol and GHB can be very dangerous, for some people even in low doses. Don't drink any alcohol when taking GHB unless when experienced. Here is my experience:

T 23:11 I drank my glass of GHB dissolved in apple juice.

T 23:21 I am feeling the first effects, they are getting stronger pretty fast. The main effect I feel now is sedation. Meanwhile I am enjoying a good glass of South-African red wine. When on GHB I always get snack munchies. I only enjoy snacks while on it, not anything sweet. The same happens when I am on opiates.

T 23:31 I am now really sedated and my legs are starting to get warm and glowy, this is a really nice feeling. I am also pretty euphoric now. I am going to get another glass of wine and something to eat, snacks of course.

T 23:38 I have just made 2 slices of bread with garlic butter which I am really enjoying, and I also poured himself another glass of red wine.

T 23:41 I think I am on my plateau now. I feel pretty sedated and euphoric. My legs still feel warm. I am going to make some more slices of bread with garlic butter because I am hungry.

T 00:11 The effects have grown even stronger. I am feeling even more sedated though I am not feeling more euphoric. The wine has amplified the sedation with a factor of two.

T 00:21 Feeling even more sedated, the wine has definately contributed a lot to this amplification. I am going to brush my teeth so I don't have to do this later. When I'm done I'm going to continue reading on online about GHB.

T 00:31 I have just brushed my teeth. I am still pretty sedated though also tired. I am going to sleep in 5 minutes. This has been a good experience, like it always is with GHB for me, only a bummer it has such a short duration.

T 00:41 My legs are feeling warm again, actually a lot warmer than it had felt the whole night. This feeling is very pleasant and feels somewhat like opiate warmth but more intense and just local.

T 00:51 The warm feeling has grown even stronger, my legs are almost burning of warmth, though the feeling is now even more pleasant than it was earlier this evening. I am also even more sedated than I was earlier this evening and nodded out a few minutes ago. I am really going to sleep within 5 minutes.

T 01:01 I am still feeling somewhat euphoric, though the euphoria has largely subsided. I am feeling pretty sleepy so I'm going to get some well earned rest.

T 01:17 Finished experience report. I am going to sleep now, nighty night.

Funny that you would read about GHB while under the influence... better to do one's research before, no? Having said that, this also happens to me when I take psychedelics... never on a "downer" though, I tend to just chill.

At such a high dose as you took I would probably have blacked out even without the alcohol. About 1 gram of GHB is enough to knock me off my feet... 1.5 will definitely do so unless I am on stimulants or psychedelics.

I can only recommend to anyone working with GHB to have access to verifiable quantities of the drug, so that they know how much they're taking. Because it seems everyone has a different tolerance... I seem to be a bit of a G lightweight, don't need much. This has never changed with repeated use either. Sometimes less than half a gram will just send me to sleep.

I wonder how you felt the next day when you woke up?

I find that if I use GHB in moderate doses specifically to help me get to sleep, it's really enjoyable, and I usualyl wake up the next day feeling really good because of that sudden dopamine release when the G wears off. Although sometimes this is about 5 hours after I took the G and it's a bit early to get up yet... the higher my dose, the stronger this effect, which is another reason I tend to keep my dosage fairly low.

Other times, when I take it just for pleasure and take a little, I find myself taking a bit more and a bit more... and a bit more... till I get to where I wanna get... and I get greedy for more... it is a morish substance... and then I suddenly feel so heavy I'm glad I can make it to bed at all... walking... and then I wonder why I overdid it again... wasting the experience, kinda. But that's usually WAY under 2 grams in total for me. YMMV or maybe YGHBMV... dunno.
 
How I feel when I wake up always depends on how much sleep I've had. If I redosed a couple of times before I go to bed I often wake up way too early due to dopamine rebound, that's a big downside. But if I drank some booze together with it, or smoked some cannabis together with it, I usually have a refreshing good nights sleep.
