The GHB/GBL Addiction & Withdrawal Thread

Status
Not open for further replies.
Hi, Im back for advice again. Stopped G for a month, used Baclofen for withdrawl... helped a lot from pat experience, although it had me feeling like a zombie. Took a slow taper off Baclofen, started to struggle with feeling of isolation and a real empty feeling inside... that hole that the G used to fill. I have been taking escotilopram since Jan, while I was on G.... helped with my depression but not much else. I did feel the better of my antidepressants as I reduced the baclofen.

ill get to the point..... anyone who has given up G will understand the feeling of loss you have, well i couldnt bear it anymore so I have started using again. Thing is after 1 month of 4ml a day I feel brilliant! Energised, feel like my antidepressant is working. Sleeping great (no G after 6 oclock) my mindset is the best it has ever been. THe G doesnt have the same potiency, but makes me feel alive again, normal...social and loving.

Am I making a big mistake? Will I end up back on my 30ml a day horror? I do not intend to go there and i feel that I am in control, know the piss poor place it took me too before

All experienced comments appreciated

If you've done it once, the chances are you'll do it again. I know I could never stick to it, after the first time I fucked up. I guess you can try and stay in control, and if you fuck up again, then never buy it again would be my advice.
 
.............he guys and gals, this is my first post here on BL but i have been reading all the great and informative post here since 2008......and finally decided to register and post my thoughts......:) i've actually been on another forum posting on the effects of G @ drugforums and have quite a bit of experience with ghb and gbl.......

i myself have been using gbl for almost 2 years now, i use to only use it when i was partying with molly but it has come to a point in my life where i am at 2-3ml every 2 to 3 hours , everyday for the past year.......i know, it's stupid , but i've always had a addictive personality and i have found that g helps me deal with my personal issues with social anxiety and gets me the pep i need to get up and handle my day......i have gone thru weeks of being totally off the geebs but find that i am a better person when i'm on my daily dosing regiment than when i'm not.....pretty sad really but for me the pros out weigh the cons.......:\ sometimes.......:\

of course i have sleep issues as many of you daily g-heads do, but i usually take 2mg xanax or 2mg triazolam at nite to get me 4-5 hours sleep and wake up and start dosing from around 8am to about 8pm...........it's gotten to the point where 3ml will just get me feeling normal and keep me away from the dreaded WDs ........ i guess i'm in denial but i am addict and i will not dump my liters of G down the drain.......like i said , it really helps me get thru my boring and mondane days......i am a day trader so i work from home and this gives me more reason/excuses to keep on dosing.......

i hear and read of all the stories of WD some of you have gone thru and i am terrified about going thru this , so i continue on with my routine , but sooner or later i know this endless G-fest will have to stop, so i guess i will jump that hurdle when i get to it.....8) but i wanted to wish all of you going thru the WDs to keep at it and know that it only takes 7-10 days at most to really start to feel normal again.......i've been thru it , dry for weeks at a time that is, and it is hell and really hard but it can be done.......like many have already said, a good diet, lots of b-vitamins, and keeping your mind preoccupied will help greatly.....!~ i know i should take my own advice, but like i said, i'll be there soon enough....again.....
 
funnily enough chamomile tea made quite a difference when I was WDing and had nothing else.

Not just 1 though, throw a few tea bags in. Music also, keep those anxious thoughts at bay.


Surprised me :)

aye thats the trick 2-3 teabags in a big mug real help.
 
wow after getting just 20ml of this stuff and about 15ml through i can safely say im getting wd's back after 36 hours of use, even months after not having it!

nasty stuff
 
well im an idiot, couldnt take the wd's so just dosed again for one more bit of releif, getting ready for a rough night, not sure whether to sleep now from this dose or just stay up and enjoy the normal feelings.
 
sleep!

You have only been on it a couple of days, just have a few beers and chill. Sure you will be fine :)
 
aye thanks , may go get some beers, yeah just a few days but ive withdrawn from it so many times i should of never bothered testing out whether i could handle it again, even a small amount, the chills are so nasty :(
 
no never tried GHB, but its not just G its all gaba drugs for me, ever since coming off a heavy benzo/gbl habbit last year my brain has seemed broken :p small amounts of any cause nasty rebound symptoms.
 
trust me the rebound off GHB is so smooth compared to GBL.

When I had it bad the high of a gbl dose would be followed by extremities twitching and anxiety, but I didn't notice a thing off GHB.

I believe this is down to the fact that GBL is a lot more lipophilic than GHB (hence GHB's smoother onset).
 
anxiety through the roof i want to fucking die, i got more alcohol although just the thought of drinking makes me want to puke, ill just have enough to make me feel better/normal then be able to eat. Tbh the walk to the shop probably did me more good than this alcohol will.
 
oh mate not good .. i know nothing about what ur going through mate so i cant really give much advice

only thing i can think of is some vallies to help with the anxiety

OR

something i find helps take the edge off when im anxious and cant get benzos are Kalms .. you can get em at Tesco off the shelf and they really do help alot

it doesnt give u any euphoria or anything but i swear it makes a huge difference in the way your feeling
 
cheers for the advice, cant get any vallies quick enough, can get pregablin which would help loads but not til tuesday, and by then ill be fine.

Just had a small glass of wine and the feeling of my muscles relaxing and my body temperature stop changing so much is heaven, but its only gonna be temporary.

Could ask my mum to grab some kalms or get some valerian for me if she goes out but i prefer her not knowing im feeling like this or she'll know im coming off something.

You might of had something similar in smack wd, where you get Restless legs, then the feeling goes all through your body its hell! that and not being able to get hot enough then getting too hot and sweats are the worst.
 
ah you mean the kicks , when your legs sorta jerk and u feel like your muscles are are to fuck

yeah i know them feelings all right ,, last time i done a rattle my ex came over to stay the night with me and said i was whacking her all night in my sleep lol

oooops

mate if it were me id rather just ask for the kalms tbh than go through what ur feeling

i was having some anxiety yesterday and it was getting me palpitations and driving me mad ... in the end i took just 1 kalm when the recomended is 2 kalms 3 times a day yet the one worked and allowed me to sleep with out waking up several times like i had been every other time i tried to sleep
 
yeah mate cheers, might get myself some. Finished a bottle of wine (so much for just a small amount to feel normal :p) and im feeling maybe 70% normal, and just reading this thread from the first post, found some of my old posts when i had to cold turkey this from a much bigger habbit.

Seriously GBL is evil, if you dont have self control never go near it. Sadly im now stuck in a loop of using booze to help WD's, which is even worse on my body in the long run.
