Ok - i will try and fing out info again.....Just a bit of advice wanted? Im taking approximately 15-20 grams (or approx 100ml in solution) of ghb each weekend - usually over a period of 24 hours (sat night/sunday). I usually end up passing out/deep sleeping on it at sometime during sunday, sometimes pass out more than once. Apart from disturbing my sleep patterns for a few days, is it actually doing me any harm? I never touch it during the week & take Milk Thistle to keep my liver healthy. A thing i have noticed though is that im now allergic to quite a few things (citric acid, malic acid, vinegar & caffeine) and a few of my friends are also (same allergies) this seems to be since i have been doing gb. I also get a bit of an irritated stomach on a monday that feels like a bloated feeling in top of my stomach. Apart from that i feel absolutely fine & in good health.
Can anyone please give me some advice as to if im harming myself at all or give any explanations for the allergies?
 
You are definitely abusing the drug and any advice other than cutting back is going to be from a hack. Why don't you pop over to erowid or the lycauem and see what kind of reports they have healthwise on GHB. I know there is a long-term GHB withdrawal report on erowid. Use the search engine. I'm sure it will be a short time before this thread gets closed again.
If you know that your usage is out of line with what is considered reasonable, the posting about it is going to end in a flame show every time.
 
Had so many conflicting pieces of advice now! Some people say im within the limits of what is classed as harmful, some say im outside them. Erowid is even conflicting - some reports say GHB is non toxic so therefore tolerance isnt achieved, others say that it is toxic and tolerance is built up quickly! Aaaargh! What do i believe? Hence my post asking for advice on here, im confused and wanting advice thats all. Help?

Well, yer taking a LARGE AMOUNT and losing a good chunk of yer weekend .. if this really doing you any "harm" - probably to some degree... I know that for the longest time GHB was onsidered "safe" and "natural" and all that other hippy bullshit, but I would guess there is some stress on yer liver at least ... hey, I could be wrong, but I would say it's time for a break ... I am sure someone can bust out with a case study... shit, had you asked this question 2 years ago, this thread would have been TOTALL HIJACKED by people citing studies that claim yer use is actually POSITIVE and the more you do the large your penis becomes or some shit... where have all of you gone?
 
Now that I think of it, my dick is a LOT BIGGER than when I started using GHB several years ago.
Wow!
pvc, a LOT of the information you are going to get is subjective and the government and the FDA are not going to fund studies to show what a safe dose of an illegal drug is. You have to read the info that's available and draw your own conclusions. That is going to be the case with any illegal (and many legal) substances. You are not going to get a black and white answer.
 
Sorry I would have posted soon but after years of using GHB my dick is now so big I'm getting paid $$$$$ to let women ride on it and so have less time for Bluelight now....

100ml doesn't mean too much, because it depends on the potency. 100ml is a whole lot for the stuff i have done, which is a fairly decent strength. it depends how it is made. do you trust who you get it from, and trust it is made properly? it has to made PROPERLY, and if you have any doubt that it is than fuck it. if it is made properly than just doing it on the weekends will not cause any harm if you know what you're doing. if you're passing out though, you need to either lay off or take less. you can't keep getting higher on G, you need to know your dose (and everyones varies) and stick to just taking that. i'm assuming you know you should not be heavily drinking on it, because passing out on it while being drunk can be very dangerous. it is very easy to do too much, so be careful, make sure it was cleanly made, lower your dosage a little bit, stick to weekends, and you will be fine. like phreex said, a couple years ago you could find info saying that it will make you live longer, make you smarter, you couldn't OD on it, etc. obviously, this shit isn't gonna happen, but the realiable studies do say that it converts to carbon dioxide and water and leaves your body, supposedly not causing any physical damage. i believe this is basically true if it is made as pure as possible, but i wouldn't recommend doing the shit all the time, because i think doing any drug can potentially cause physical problems when done too much. as far as allergies go, i have never seen or heard of a reaction like this, and i've known around 10 people who did it at least once a week or more,and read as much info as possible on it. you are nowhere near any type of physical addiction, so that is nothing to worry about.
if you have more questions on G you can e-mail me.
peace
