    major sweating

    i've noticed now after picking up the snus again that the nicotine effects have sort of changed forms for me. before it was a dizzying, very calming feeling that made my nerves a bit blunted and/or numbish. the way i usually notice nicotine.
    now it's more of a rushing, heating up feeling.
    what i particularly notice is that copious sweating that occurs. my armpits drip like mad after i have a pris in.
    it took me a couple weeks to realize this but it seems to only happen after the nicotine starts to really have it's effect.
    today i was taking a test and had a pris in and i felt a drop on my sides every 5 seconds. along with dark wet patches on my shirt under my arms. extremely ****ing annoying.
    as i got rid of the damn thing after class, the sweating continued shortly after but then went away.
    bear in mind i sprayed on two coats of anti-perspirant this morning.

    i'm not sure if it's just a phase i'm in where i'm retaining water in a weird fashion because i'm losing my fitness or if the nicotine is starting to develop this problem. i've had sweaty armpit problem for quite a while throughout life...it will come and go...but now it seems to coincide more with nicotine usage.

    anyone else have this issue?

    I don't think I get anything like that. I've suspected snus of making me sleepy though. It's like the feeling you have hours after smoking a joint. A little fuzzy headed, and groggy. I don't know if it's the snus, or the time of year, but something's up.

      Nicotine can certainly have that effect - it's a stimulant, so it will open blood vessels and heat up the body. Nothing much to do about it, really. Could be things in your diet that are amplifying the effect - caffeine and tyrosine (in cheese, chocolate, red wine, red meats, etc) may, for example, boost the heating effect. Excess niacin (vitamin B3) may contribute as well, I think.
