    There’s people who haven’t heard of GHB? Most people know it as rape date drug or something similar.

      Interesting. I’ve heard of GHB but didn’t know it was one of those. I’ve only heard of roofies being used. But I don’t generally keep up with what’s happening in the drug world

      I remember it being sold in the 90s as a “designer drug” called “Grievous Bodily Harm”.

      Every few years, it is re-marketted as a new designer drug to be fashionable. These Drug dealers are nearly as dishonest as Real Estate Developer and Tech Bros.!

        I picked up some G the other week. My dealer described it as a renovator’s delight with native AI integration.

    I took heaps of G back in the day. Good fun. Follow the rules.

    No Alcohol.
    Wait at least two hours before re-dosing.
    When starting creep up to work out your allowed dose, eg, try 2ml, nothing, wait two hours (use a timer), try 2.5ml, nothing, wait 2h+, try 3ml, etc. Most of the girls I was hanging with were about 2ml, most of the guys 2.5-3ml. It took me a while because I was 4ml, but I’m a big dude. Some people seemed to have some tolerance or susceptibility, maybe start with 1ml if you’re a smaller stature person.
    You can’t take more to get higher, you’ll just od, it’s a very binary effect. Adding another 0.5ml to see what happens is where you get in trouble. If it’s happened and you’re G’d, that’s your dose.
    Repeat the dosage testing process with new batches.

    The effect itself is like being drunk, euphoric and HORNY. I stopped taking it because I was single and it was simply frustrating.

    They used to give out “Say no to G” stickers at warehouse parties. Ravers would en masse slap them on people being stretchered out by paramedics.

        “To feel as if you’re drunk” is an unfair appraisal of what being G’d feels like. I should’ve said it’s one of the many enjoyable intoxicants that man has discovered. Half a ml is only perspective. No one is free pouring g hoping to get the correct dose, use a 5ml graduated syringe. Have you seen the amount of fentanyl it takes to kill someone, half a ml of fent would kill lots and lots of people.

      I remember going to a doof in gippsland in 2010 (noise poison) and cops were searching cars on the way in (unusual for the party size) because another doof at the same site 2 weeks prior had a violent incident that was blamed on GHB. It had a bad reputation amongst people I knew at doofs.

      Yeah, I love drugs and all, but this seems like too much math to do when I’m trying to get messed up. I can track X amount of drinks per hour easier.

    A preemptive reminder for anyone not familiar:

    It is against the community rules to promote anything that is illegal in Australia.

    You are welcome to discuss the article and illicit drugs but not in a way to promote them for recreational use (exceptions can be made where there is scientific consensus).

    “One millilitre — less than half a soy sauce fish — can be the difference between a safe dose of GHB and an overdose.”

    I never use these soy sauce fish anyway, so I’m good.

    Anyway, isn’t this shit the same stuff as the date rape drug and the stuff you could easily get from those sticky bead kids toys ?
