SWIM has been reading quite a lot about nicotine patches...and since a lot of the people said they are getting very nice and mild euphoric effects with nicotine, I have to assume that these people are non smokers, like SWIM.
SWIM went and got the expensive nicoderm patches, 21 mg. Cut it in half for the first test, put it on, and then 1 hour later, SWIM had extreme vertigo and felt VERY nauseous! Pulled it off and became back to normal after 2 hours.
The next day, SWIM decided half was too much, and went with 1/4. While no nausea, SWIM had a little vertigo and there is no way he could go on the whole day with this. It was definitely not enhancing any focus or mood.
Next day, SWIM tried 1/8, which feels so tiny. Anyways, at this does, SWIM got no vertigo, no nausea, but a BIT more focus than usual. Which is good, and SWIM kept it the whole day.
SWIM is very dissapointed with nicotine after all the reading. He was expecting much more, but any higher doses makes SWIM nauseous and NON nootropic like. Where is the euphoria or enegy and antianxiety effects?
Any advice??
