Many people don’t realise how addictive GHB is until they try to stop. According to the National Drug & Alcohol Research Centre. GHB is a central nervous system depressant, and misuse can lead to life-threatening consequences. In fact, GHB-related hospitalisations have increased fourfold since 2012, and deaths have also risen.
Our GHB rehab programs combine medical detox, therapy, and relapse prevention to help you stop using GHB and regain control. We support clients through every stage of the recovery journey, with a personalised approach that builds confidence, resilience, and hope for the future.
Our programs give you more than just a place to recover: we offer medical detox, therapy, support, and the tools for long-term recovery, all in a safe and understanding environment.
GHB addiction is complex, dangerous, and often misunderstood. Our programs are designed to help you stop using GHB safely, manage withdrawal, and build a new way of life.
GHB (gamma-hydroxybutyrate) is a central nervous system depressant. When abused, it can cause euphoria, but it also increases the risk of overdose, coma, and death. GHB use can lead to dependence, and people often experience strong cravings and a rapid return to use after stopping. Addiction to GHB is a medical condition that requires professional help.
The effects of GHB withdrawal syndrome can include tremors, insomnia, and intense cravings that are difficult to manage alone. The risk of overdose, as well as serious physical and psychological impacts, make professional help critical for safe withdrawal. GHB use may also cause memory problems and depression, further complicating recovery.
Long-term GHB use can damage both body and mind. Using GHB regularly can cause seizures, irregular breathing, and increase the risk of overdose. It can also lead to severe anxiety, depression, and feelings of isolation. The physical and psychological effects of GHB abuse make it a dangerous and unpredictable drug, especially when combined with other substances.
Our treatment program focuses on safe detox, managing withdrawal symptoms, and creating a recovery plan that works for you. Medically assisted detox helps reduce the risk of severe withdrawal symptoms and provides a safe space to stabilise. Therapy sessions, group support, and relapse prevention tools help clients build skills for long-term success.
We help clients rebuild their lives with personalised care. Aftercare services ensure continued support, while therapy helps address the root causes of addiction. Recovery is not always easy, but with the right tools and encouragement, it’s possible to achieve a lasting recovery and regain control. We are committed to helping each client take the first step towards a healthier future.

A typical day in our inpatient GHB rehab is structured to provide stability, routine, and focused support. Clients start the day with breakfast and a group check-in, where we set daily intentions and reflect on challenges. Mornings include therapy sessions like individual counselling, group therapy, and relapse prevention workshops. These sessions focus on understanding GHB withdrawal symptoms, learning coping strategies, and building emotional resilience.
Afternoons include psychoeducation about GHB use, relapse risk factors, and managing triggers. Clients also engage in wellness activities — yoga, mindfulness, and gentle movement — to support both physical and psychological recovery. Evenings are for reflection, with quiet time, journaling, and peer connection. The structure helps clients manage withdrawal syndrome, cravings, and emotions while staying focused on their recovery journey.
We’ve written a quick blog about that’ll answer some more of your questions.

GHB is a central nervous system depressant that can cause severe withdrawal symptoms, including seizures, tremor, and insomnia.

Other medications, such as mood stabilisers or sleep aids, may also be used depending on individual needs.

GHB addiction treatment is not just about detox. Therapy, relapse prevention, and support for mental health are critical. We use a comprehensive treatment model that combines medical care with therapy and peer support to ensure long-term recovery.
Recovery from GHB addiction is not a linear process. Acute withdrawal symptoms like cravings, tremor, and insomnia can last for days or weeks. Long-term recovery involves therapy, relapse prevention, and support for co-occurring mental health issues. Inpatient rehab typically lasts 30 to 90 days, but the recovery journey continues well beyond that.
