“GHB is god tier for sleep though. I doubt there's an actual better drug out there for sleep than GHB.”
“GHB, for instance, makes me feel a little off for a few days after.”
Is Ghb safe? What the research covers
Conclusion: A minority of MSM appear to engage in chemsex behaviours but they are at risk of this negatively impacting on their health and well-being. Further research is required to examine high risk chemsex behaviours, impact of chemsex on psycho-social well-being and if chemsex influences uptake of PrEP, PEP and sexual health screening.
Conclusion: GHB was effective in improving narcolepsy-cataplexy and related symptoms in adults but was less well tolerated than placebo because of dose-dependent side effects.
