GBL, or Gamma-Butyrolactone as it is otherwise known, is a chemical often employed within the construction industry for industrial purposes.
Although extremely dangerous, in recent years, GBL has been used as a recreational drug.
Providing side effects such as enhanced pleasure and relief from mental health disorders such as depression, many overlook the health complications associated with GBL and instead use the substance frequently.
Sadly, when GBL is consumed frequently, addictions often arise.

If you have become addicted to GBL and find it challenging to navigate your day-to-day life without the drug, you must consider your GBL addiction treatment & rehab options.
Determining Whether You Require GBL Addiction Treatment & Rehab
Determining whether you require GBL addiction treatment & rehab can be difficult, especially when you are personally locked into the vicious cycle of addiction. Yet, if you find yourself looking for GBL addiction treatment, you will have likely come to realise that your relationship with GBL is harming your health.
For example, you may have noticed physical changes in your appearance, such as unexplained weight loss. Your complexion may have also changed, and you may have come to experience breathing problems. In addition, your psychological state may well have changed as a result of frequent GBL use.
Although you may have consumed GBL initially to relieve anxiety or stress, you may now find yourself feeling extremely anxious, highly irritable and on edge. You may also have trouble retaining information.
If you experience any of the problems noted above, you likely require immediate GBL addiction treatment.
Attending Rehab For GBL Addiction Treatment
Across the country, many rehabs provide GBL addiction treatment. However, the rehab you attend for treatment will depend on various factors. 
For example, if you are willing to attend an inpatient rehab, you will be offered GBL treatment on a residential basis. However, if you prefer to return home after a day of treatment, outpatient treatment will be recommended.
Your addiction’s severity and psychological state may also dictate which rehab is best for you to attend.
Although inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation are highly effective, inpatient rehabilitation may be in your best interest if your psychological state has significantly declined.
This is because inpatient rehab will safeguard you from triggers that may cause you to relapse as you progress through treatment.
How Does GBL Addiction Treatment & Rehab Work?
At Addiction Advocates, we will listen to your personal needs before recommending and referring you to rehab.
Although we will cater to your needs, we advise many individuals struggling with drug addictions to complete inpatient treatment. Should you find yourself willing to attend an inpatient rehab, you will be able to commence GBL addiction treatment & rehab just days after contacting us.
Typically, GBL addiction treatment & rehab will see you complete a personalised treatment programme. Combining detoxification, rehabilitation, psychological therapy, and well-being therapy, your time in rehab will help you withdraw from GBL and overcome your dependency.
Irrespective of the treatment you are offered during your inpatient rehab, you will have access to around the clock care. You will also have the opportunity to work with addiction recovery specialists to learn how to manage any cravings you experience.
If inpatient rehab is not for you, we can help you secure outpatient GBL rehab treatment. Both the NHS and private rehabs provide outpatient rehab treatment to see you attend rehab during the day.
Here, you will encounter various therapies that will assist you in making a long-term recovery. Please remember that attending an outpatient rehab will see you required to return home after a day of treatment. This could sadly increase your risk of relapse. With this in mind, we would ask you to consider attending an inpatient rehab for GBL addiction treatment.
