I want to talk about the differnces between the nicotine buz of different brand liquids. Do any of you get different buzzes from differnt brands of liquid? I am not talking about the difference between nicotine levels, just differnt brands.
I smoked an anolog cig a few weeks ago after not smoking any in a long time and it gave me a very interresting feeling. It Made me feel a little sick and I got a bad kid of buz. not a good buz. I think that is just form the other chemicals. That makes me really wonder how much of the addiction to anologs is really nicotine, and how much is really the other chemicals.
tell me what you think.

Based on my limited knowledge of different brands of juice I am lead to believe that as long as the concentration of nicotine is the same or virtually the same, the actual nic buzz should be the same. You may however be having trouble with some of the flavor additives and/or the pg/vg used in the production. Granted I've only ever used 2 types, Johnson creek and mist-styx.

When it comes to addiction I would be likely to agree with the assessment that part of the draw of analogs is the additives.

We don't really know the effect of the flavorings/flavor additives in eliquid when they're absorbed into the lungs via vaping. Some might feel "cleaner" to you, but the same nicotine level -- when labeled accurately -- should deliver the same effect across all brands of eliquid, because the "dosage" is the same. 18mg/ml is 18mg/ml, or whatever your level.
(The crucial point in there is "when labeled accurately", of course.)

Unlike tobacco, which has multiple psychoactive compounds in it, nicotine is pretty straightforward like that.
Tobacco contains a ton of naturally-occurring alkaloids along with nicotine that enhance/complement the effects. It's not the additives that give tobacco its pleasurable draw, it's the fact that tobacco is much more than nicotine.

I remember doing the very same thing during my transition period (not that I though it was bad exactly i was just dizzy and nic stoned), my guess is that first pg and vg are terrible as a nicotine delivery device and secondly there are a ton of other things added (and naturally occuring) to cigs to enhance the effects and the addictive qualities of tobacco.

My guess is you could chain vape 24mg for a few months and still get nic sick if you smoked an analog.
