Vaping at low nicotine puts me to sleep, anyone else?

[loganmacallum1]

So i vape 12-16mg's during the day, and then tonight i had a free sample of some 6 mg juice, I vaped it and instantly felt sleepy. Anyone else experience this? If i switch back to my 12 mg im awake again, but if i put it down for awhile and switch back to the 6 im back to feeling like its nap time.

There's nothing, to my knowledge, in any eliquid that can induce drowsiness, but it would make sense that the higher nic stuff might make you feel more awake. Nicotine is a stimulant. Maybe you're just tired.

I've thought about that, or the possibility that the lower nicotine is enough to just mellow me out before bed. I need the 12 to function through out the day though haha. Im useless without my early morning vape.

As jambi said, you're just tired. This is basically analogous to asking if decaf coffee makes you drowsy - it's just not keeping you awake! There are many reasons you might have a default mode of tired during the day - I have the same problem - I'd suggest correcting any problems you may have in your sleeping pattern and if that doesn't work or there aren't any, see a doctor about it

AFIK, nicotine is a stimulant, so taking that into account it's the lack of nicotine that is making you drowsey. In the morning i vape 12mg, afternoon 6mg, and after 8 PM 0 nic.

This is probably why I'm up until 4 or 5 am every day since I started vaping. Pretty sure quitting analogs contributes to insomnia too. Maybe it's already time for me to lower my nic. (After 4 days?)
