As someone who has done a lot of drugs, nicotine having "no high" is just bs. Yeah it's mild, but take a few drags very quickly and find out.
I don't think nicotine is a bad drug, necessarily.
But smoking is a terrible way to take it. Lip pouches also have their detractions, with the wounds they create.
Perhaps the teas, or other drinks, or sprays are better. Or maybe salves, if nicotine patches do anything then a salve should work too, I'm guessing. I know there's bigger overdose risk, though. So they all will require the same personal responsibility approach as strong alcohol.
Ultimately I think legal access to strong nicotine products without the cancer issues of smoking is inevitable. But maybe only if we get to somewhere in the early 2100's, because I don't think it's happening soon.
Ah yes my daily nicotine coffee
Likely not just daily. It has a short effective time.
Nicotine is poisonous when swallowed. A tea is a horrible idea.
Are you sure? I can't find anything specific to swallowing beyond dosage.
My vape liquid has that skull warning symbol, says poisonous when swallowed and to see a doctor if that happens.
Might have to do with being a concentrated nicotine liquid for producing several doses, mate.
As like for many drugs, this search starts seeking pleasure and ends up, avoiding withdrawal with no high
Can confirm. Ruinied my life. Ironically it was alcohol that destroyed me.
sending love man
(´･ᴗ･ ` ) Thanks mate.
Edit: Currently dry for over 2 years. Although I still do amphetamine, kratom and benzos (to come down) on the weekends. A big reason is that I obviously cant drink anymore, ever and before I was on sertraline (SSRI) I did mdma every few months. LSD was the drug I disliked the most, btw if anyone cares. Didnt have a bad trip but by hour 10 it was extremely exhausting.
Smoked 2 cigs way back when.
Only coughed with no benefits.
Was it Clinton that didn't inhale?
Charlie Wilson.

"The girls had cocaine, and the music was loud. It was total happiness. And both of them had long, red fingernails with an endless supply of beautiful white powder...The Feds spent a million bucks trying to figure out whether, when those fingernails passed under my nose, did I exhale or inhale, and I ain't telling"
