Does anybody else get emotional when they use snus?

[sychodelix]

Snus has a sort of dual effect on me; both stimulant and depressant. It boosts my mood but relaxes me at the same time. Then again, I have major depressive disorder and ADHD, so all stimulants tend to have that effect on me. I find the smooth rise in nicotine of snus is wonderful, plus I use nasal snuff when I want an extra "jolt".

yup.. its never acted as a stimulant for me.

The same was with cigarettes when I smoked those.

I get emotional when I don't. :wink:

Snus simply relieves nicotine withdrawal caused by years of smoking. I don't even get a euphoric feeling, unless I have slept for more than twelve hours. Even then, the buzz only lasts a few minutes. Nicotine has never affected my emotional state though.

Oh yes, I have wicked ADHD and I just recently took myself off of the meds they had me on for it. Interestingly, it was right around the time that I started using the snus so I'm thinking you're right. It has really helped with my ADHD stuff, although that sounds really crazy. But it has.

That doesn't sound so crazy. I've heard many people say that nicotine helps keep their ADHD in check. I've also read it in quasi medical studies. I don't remember how in depth the studies were, but you should be able to find something on the web.

I've heard this as well...


and Jason, I'm the same way.. I get super hyper w/o my nicotine, and then irritable and anxious...

[turbozed]

Do I!

Dunno if this counts as emotional or physical, but shortly after popping in a pris or a portion, I get a full salute from the purple headed warrior. A nice extra you guys didn't "warn" me about when I was starting up. BTW, first order came 6 months ago today

[deebocools]

I got erections the first few times I dipped at home.

Before that, when I upped my coffee game to about a pot a day for a month, I was like a damn animal. Seeing beautiful women in the world was like torture. Wasn't very fun actually.

In summary I am very simply stimulated with snus, I can't even remember the last time I fell asleep on accident since espressoing/snusing regularly.

When I miss my snus(like if I forget it, yikes!) "spaced out" is an excellent description. I just stare off into space wondering what's the matter with me.
