You ever get the jitters and nail biting but at the same time the caffeine has made you suuuper sleepy so you go take a nap?

This is not medical advice, but smokeless nicotine has worked far better for me.

    I've been using snus for 2 years now, it does help but if I run out, I go straight back to other nicotine consumption methods. Currently trying to tone down my dosages. I've weened down from 12mg pouches to 6mg while maintaining the same amount of daily intake (~4 pouches/day). Beats smoking cigarettes that's for sure.

    I use snuff personally. I've never felt the nicotine from a cigarette and always hated how they make your mouth taste, so I've never been tempted, even when I kept tobacco, papers and filters on hand. When I run out I often can't be arsed to get a new can for a few days or weeks.

    I'm on proper ADHD meds these days, which beats any self medication. Still nice to have a lil extra.
