Default Re: My girlfriend was drugged

Good to read your posts. I've never tried GHB nor do I know anyone who has. A few years ago, I read a book on it that made a convincing case for GHB being a victim of media and DEA hysteria. Certainly using the term "date rape" attracts attention and raises an audience's emotional involvement. I remember the book strongly stated that the health risks from GHB were exaggerated and that no one had ever died or suffered any severe health issue from an OD. The authors claimed that in the reports of death from GHB abuse there were other factors that were responsible. At one time, perhaps still, GHB was used medicinally in part of Europe. I want to say Germany, which has some of the strictest laws in the world regarding dietary supplements, but I am not sure. I don't remember which condition, perhaps a sleep disorder. Why do you dissuade personal use now? Is it solely due to the legal climate now or are there issues with GHB itself that you have since become aware of?

regards,

raisins
