I thought I'd write something about this as it hardly gets a mention and I learn't a lot about the substance last night.

I ended up going to a rave in Auckland called Chemistry, I'd taken that evening (up to 6am):

* Approx 20 NOS hits
* 2 Acid
* 1 2CT7 Pill (supposed to be MDMA possibly contained also)
* 1 & 1/2 mls of GHB
* Small amount of Alcohol

Dodgy mixture isn't it, but we won't go there, I'm more interested on concentrating on events after this time <IMG SRC="smile.gif" border="0" ALT="icon">

At 6am we decided to hit the afterclubs and went up to club 'Bed', walked down to a carpark and had 2ml of GBL. This brought back on the feelings of the pill etc. and was quite nice, medium strong. At 7.45am while waiting for some Nemisis powder we decided to have some more GBL and I took another 2ml and thats when the fun started.

For the first 25mins I really enjoyed it and got very dancy (and horny for a period), but then the effects began to overwhell me and I ended off deciding to
go for a walk to clear my head. The effects were coming on stronger and one of my friends decided to follow to check I was ok and we ended up walking to a park.

I was fighting the urge to go to sleep as I had a vague knowledge discussing the dangers of GHB and comatype sleep. I was extremely disorientated and soon after my head managed to slowly get to grips with it I ended up collapsing to the floor and throwing up for several minutes... not pleasant! I then came round and felt pretty reasonable and left after an hour at the park and later came home (no more drugs for me tonight me thinks)

I'd had basic small dose experiences with GHB before in the UK but never really had a great idea, I understood the concept of weight with regards to dose. I also knew that it does bring on effects of other drugs taken (ahem!) and can build up but wasn't thinking...

So theres my experiences from last night, apart from the small incident I really enjoyed myself and in a way am pleased that I learn't something new about a drug I wasn't too familiar with. If I take in the future I'll remember in retrospect... just thought I'd share this experience <IMG SRC="smile.gif" border="0" ALT="icon">

    Just found some interesting information out about the difference between GHB and GBL:

    "If purchasing G, check if it is GHB or GBL, as GBL is usually 2 - 3 times as strong by volume. However individual batches of these drugs will also vary, and caution is advised if acquiring G from new sources."

    I had 4ml of GBL from 6am onward... shite!!! No wonder it was so strong... learn something new everyday!!

    i totally passed out on ghb once, had done pills and was quite pissed, not a good combination. i'm normally a really light sleeper but apparantly nothing could of woken me up, my mates had to keep checking if i was still breathing! i, fortunatley passed out in my house, but another mate of mine passed out on ghb in a pub and got taken to hospital. he not only had the confusion of waking up in a hospital but he'd also pissed himself! poor bloke! be careful with ghb! <IMG SRC="smile.gif" border="0" ALT="icon">
