Gays overdosing on GHB at crazy rate this summer!!
The industrial and household solvent based party drug GHB has sure been kicking the gay community's ass this summer!! There have been a record number of deaths by overdose at the circuit parties like the annual Pines Party and Fire Island in New York, so much so that there was even a bulletin put out by the Board of Directors at Pines Care Centers:
We regret to inform the Fire Island Pines Community that there was a death this morning, Saturday, August 18, 2007, of a 31 year old healthy man from a reaction to GHB.
This tragic incident follows an unprecedented number of GHB overdoses at the Pines Party, July 29.
Putting this together there is a strong likelihood that the GHB being distributed in the community is particularly toxic and dangerous.
We circulate this information to encourage all Pines and Grove residents to stay away from any GHB.
Of course it is better not to take any illegal drugs as there are no known ways to reverse their side effects. But all the overdoses we have seen in the last four weeks have included GHB.
Sincerely,
Dr. Ed Schulhafer, M.D.
President
Board of Directors

Party hard boys and girls, but not so hard that we don't see you at the next one.......damn......
