Hi,
I've passed lot of hours during these last months reading, and visiting sites, trying to understand if ghb was a stupefacient or a medical product, and why it was so denigrated in US scientistic publications.
Why in Italy or in Europe it is considered like another antidepressant or sedative product?
Are all European researcher mad? Why they could leave in commerce a med that cause all kind of deseases and dangerous effects?
They probably lose their mind!
Or, perhaps, all US scientists are under the money of pharmaceutical trades, and they could promote only classic ADs, benzos and TCAs?
Good, probably none of the two above!
I dont wanna think in the above ways. I wish only understand if ghb could work better or not.
The answer that i gave myself was: "It is a simply geographic discrimination!"
On European pubblication, i find out:
1) Ghb works like benzos (it's similar) but it seems to give less side effects.
2) none case of serious danger was ever reported, on benzos, instead, you could read thounsand of fatal cases.
3) It's impossible to get overdose: if you exceed, you fall asleep.
4) You could be careful to not drive (just like all Ads, benzos and tcas and like a million of other medicals product).
These are the facts why you could use, in Europe, ghb or benzos or other meds.
Why in Us it is considered like a stupefacient?
I do not know, but I live in Europe, and i could not understand thousand of other US decisions and americans way of thinking!
That's the why it is, at the end, only a geographic matter!
In Europe it's impossible that a medical product could be retired from the commerce cause it could stimulate the rape! It's a "medioeval" way of thinking!
The rapes happends cause raper is just a criminal!
The cause is not what you could have drinken, eat or done.
But european have more practical way of thinking! We had too much inquisitions, witches, wizard in our past to not continue in that way!
That's the why, if in Europe anyone would try to begin a law-action just like it was done in US, Judges will laugh in front of his face!
bye.
