ephedrine is a great appetite supressant. works wonders for me. stay away from the smokes, man, it took me 8 months from the time i tried to quit to actually kick the habit. and ive heard that dipping is even harder to quit. also if you like being vascular, nicotine will "deflate" your veins to a certain extent. hope this helps ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

oh i meant just chewing the gum or using a patch, don't wanna smoke. ephedrine just wasn't enough, i was on that last time i was cutting. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Got to agree, I am a tin a day Copenhagen user. . .at this point I don't think it effects my diet, hunger or vascularity, only my gums. Stay away from nicotene there are better ways to diet. . . ------------------ ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

nicotine itself is very safe, it's just the addictive qualities you have to worry about as it is considered as addictive as heroin by some. if your under 18 can you buy it at the store without any hassles? ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

It really depends bro... Some stores are stingy fucks, and won't sell to under 18... Some will... I never really had a problem when i was 17... But now that I am 18... I still get asked... I dont know bro... Get a fake iD ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

I think nicotine will work as an appetite suppresant in the first couple of months you use it, but that effect wears off, in my opinion. Kodiak, I would have assumed you were Kodiak dipper. I used to be, but now I've moved to Cope, as well. Top lip, no less. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

moondog is right. the first few months, nicotine acts as a stimulant but once your body gets used to the stuff it takes on more depressant qualities, and i would think that depressants would make you more hungry instead of less. ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

well i'm only going to use it for a maximum of 1 month straight. more than likely i'm just going to use it while on DNP, so it will be a 1wk on/1 off cycle or a 3days on/3 off cycle. i don't plan to get addicted, will be very careful.

NICOTINE is one powerful mother fucker !!! I learned the hard way, went through hell quitting, was doing a can and a half of Cope a day. Didnt think I was addicted til I quit. Actually had to use a nicotine patch for 30 days. Definitely stay away from smoking or dipping if your clean from it now. Ask anyone that does, the money, the smell, the inconvenience. I wasnt one for swallowing too much of it, so sometimes it would get hard to talk to people cause I had to spit and didnt have my spitoon, in a mall or somewhere. Did it for 10 years, quit April 25, 1994. ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

If I get engaged in Feb I'll be quitting a tin a day habbit. . .I suggest we all quit, but I do love my copenhagen. Started with Kodiak, it was my dogs name, hence the handle. ------------------ ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Nicotine is a stimulant that works in a similar mechanism to ephedrine. Therefore you get a drug that speeds up your metabolism, and curbs your appetite....but is one of the most additive (if not THE most) substances known to man. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

I think nicotine addiction definitely varies depending on the individual, D1734. I smoked for 3 years when I was younger, almost a pack a day of Camel Wides, and when I decided to quit, I did it in less than 1 week, no problem. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

bchemist: so if i am on adipokinetix or something like that is nicotine even worth adding because you say it works in similar way to ephedrine. or will it curb my appetite even more? frack: that sounds really good to be able to do that, but i guess the reason the average joe never quits is for basically the same reason they never step a foot in the gym...no will power. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

True that willpower is a factor, but I honestly didn't have much trouble quitting at all. Here, check out this article, if you have access to this drug you may want to try it. Actually, I doubt you will since it's so fucking expensive, but I thought you might be interested anyway. Be sure to be careful because there could always be reactions when you mix drugs like that... ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
