I didn't see this thread before, so I figure I'll stop by. GHB is a great substance and it's very versatile. I've used it in MANY applications.
It's great around 2 grams empty stomach for energy and endurance in the gym.
It's great at 2-3 grams before going into a bar. You get the effects of having 4 really nice drinks while still retaining clarity. Oh... and there's no calories.
If you're having a very bad reaction to a stim (even the most potent 'desoxyephedrine') this will take the edge off within minutes.
If you're under severe acute stress or feeling a panic attack coming on, just take 2-3 grams and you'll feel fine enough to get a grip (and some). The taper off is virtually unnoticable.
As a sexual aid, it is by far the best erection enhancer (rock hard wood) and relieves all sexual anxiety. I shagged this girl for over 2 hours until she was so raw she couldn't take it anymore.
As a sleep aid, 3 grams is good for clearing the mind and sinking into a restful sleep.
If you're in a bind with sleep hours and can only afford 4-5 hours of sleep, 6 grams of GHB will knock you out and the 'dawn effect' will wake you up and have you perky and alert. The dawn effect is when the GHB wears off and the dopamine pathways are re-opened.
Anyhow....
GHB used in date rape? The stuff has such a pungent, salty, distinct taste to it, anyone who was spiked with a little bit of this would throw his/her drink away. It's VERY odd, unpleasant, and disgusting. I'd see MAYBE hiding it in a marguerita. Maybe. Every 'GHB' rape incident on file has been reported to have alcohol involved. GHB is unable to be detected, as it's metabolized to water, carbon dioxide, and trace carbohydrates, leaving no metabolites what-so-ever.
I've bared witness to many stories of utter idiots who say, "I hate GHB!!! It almost killed me!" The answer is, no it didn't almost kill you. Your utter ignorance and lack of intelligence put you in jeopardy. When you take GHB in large quantities like 'cap after cap', you're goin' DOWN. Idiots with the mentality, "I wanna get higher and higher! More, more, more!" have the likelihood of screwing themselves up on this. If someone were to use the substance, remember:
1. Accurately measure your dose. You wouldn't open up a bottle of pills and take it by the handful would you?
2. Don't drive while on it. Duh.
3. Don't dose it all the time. Take it when you need it.
4. Don't combine with any other downers.
5. Well, since it's illegal... hahaha... don't use it at all
