Are you saying that GHB and the barbituates are in the same class, or work in the same manner? If so, I would have to dissagree. There side effects from abuse may be similar, but the two drugs are apples and oranges.

No they are, of course, not the same class. I can see how you might
have gotten that impression. The abuse and addiction looks a lot like
barbs. The same kind of behavior happens with a powerful benzo like
Rohipinal or Mandrex, Quaalude, ect.GHB seems ez at first but I have seen the middle and end in a friend.
All the charming things, like the odd fire (dropped cigaretttes), nodding
out, driving the car while blacked out, slurred speech, ect. In a word, messy.james
