Nicotine sedative vs stimulant

[mberlinger3]

Hey guy

I started vaping (never smoked) to get stimulating effects but every time I vape I usually get really calm and sedated. Is there a way to promote the stimulant effects of nicotine? Or are there herbal mixtures that are more stimulating than nicotine alone? I vape at 6mg and vape all damn day long but can't figure out how to make it better at getting me going. Any help is appreciated!

That is not the purpose of vaping.

Yes zero nic and a cup of coffee. Seriously if your not already addicted to nicotine y o y would you use it?

I don't know what you are expecting vaping to do for you but chasing after some kind of stimulant high isn't part of the equation. A nicotine OD high enough to induce physiological symptoms of anxiety and palpitations isn't exactly a pleasant experience.

nicotine is not what you are looking for. Not flaming just saying

I have heard that some types of hyper people react to stimulants like they are sedatives.

You could try upping the nicotine level but it sounds like it is not giving the desired effects. The other question is what are you using for gear. The delivery system makes a huge difference.

Best way to get off the caffeine is slowly cut back and take something for the headache when it comes.. I do drink a little less coffee since I started vaping. I think I knocked a pot out of the daily equation.

That fine. Is there something I can blend with the ejuice then? I've seen the caffeine blended juices that haven't been received well by the community. I'm a chem e so I can figure out bio- availability and solubility rates necessary for my desire.

Maybe a sub ohm dripper set up on a mech 'clone'-of course, would do the trick...

It sounds like you're experiencing one of the main reasons that people get addicted to nicotine -- it organizes your neurotransmitters, exactly the way that ritalin does to a hyperactive child, and the resulting "feeling" is that of calmness, of being in control, being able to get things done. This is what a smoker is looking for when they say "I'll have a smoke, then I'll get right on that" because it makes the smoker feel in control, able to concentrate fully and achieve something. That's why one of the major symptoms of nic withdrawal is a lack of focus, fuzzy, lazy, lack of ability to concentrate. It's also why so many smokers are unable to quit, they may have ADD or have some other brain-chemical disorder, and are self-medicating and have been doing so for years without even realizing it.

Why give this guy grief? I use both coffee and nicotine for their stimulating properties and have for forty years, 37 years legally.

That's just it. I enjoy vaping and I'd forget the pills. I'd just like to combine the two.

I have a homemade sx350 mod and I'm using my nautilus until the squape reloaded clone comes in.

Any talk about combining supplements and eliquid will get this thread moved to the "Not Advisable" Forum by the Mods.

If you're looking for something to give you that "buzz" I don't really know what to suggest, but I know what to NOT suggest and that's getting addicted to something that is so hard to walk away from.

Not combining in that sense... Let me rephrase id like to not have to take supplements and have the ejuice do the work -_- all I want to know is how to pronounce the stimulant effects of nicotine...

You might try WTA. If you've never smoked, it might actually make you feel sick, or it might be more of a stimulant to you. It's Whole Tobacco Alkaloids; some vapers use it, either vaping it alone or mixed with regular ejuice, to help cravings or fend off other withdrawal symptoms like mood swings, mood disorders of all types. It costs a bit more, but for those suffering withdrawal symptoms, is well worth the extra cost.

No one is giving him any grief, or if they are it's about ill formed or illogical expectations that vaping is the same thing or provides the same experience as smoking. What you get out of nicotine and via the absorption method with vaping is not the same slap you upside the head experience you get from burning processed tobacco and smoking. Short version? Vaping 101: Vaping is not smoking.

What the benefits of WTA? And how is it different than nicotine?
