Nicotine and Comorbid Substance Use

[pangloss]

I use two of the above caffeine and prescription stimulant for concentration issues...

[lxskllr]

Just caffeine. I don't get any stimulant effect from it, but I loves me some coffee. I also minor in tea, but coffee's my favorite.

Where is my best friend marijuana??

Where is my best friend marijuana??

pyschotropic (THC, LSD, etc)

[jim]

Another keen weed smoker here.

Incidentally, I once did some extensive reading on bioavailability of THC, and it seems that in theory you could make weed snus. As long as the plant matter is heated enough to liberate the THC, it will absorb through the gums. I tried a few experiments, but I was rarely brave enough to heat the weed for long enough in the oven...

LOL, I didn't quite see that. But having done much of both, don't ever really feel like they are related.

[Soft Morning, City!]

I don't feel that THC and LSD are related, but I still picked the psychotropic category. I haven't used LSD in a very long time, but I'm a daily pot smoker. Helps with my anxiety and depression and enhances my enjoyment of life in general.

[sagedil]

I have smoked pot daily since I was 25, so for 18 years. Did much, much LSD when I was younger, and still manage to find it about every 5 years. Have tripped at least 40 times.

And yes, that may explain much about me. :wink: :wink: :wink:

[RobsanX]

Just caffeine in the mornings, and alcohol once or twice a week...

Thats interesting that pot helps with your anxiety b/c it does exactly the opposite for me, potentially inducing even more nervousness.

Alcohol (when I did use it) worked well though it has rebound effects.

Incidentally, nicotine, caffeine, and adderall (although all stimulants) help my mood.

I think hash oil should make the job easier.

No option for none of the above?

Doesn't seem like a valid survey of sorts. At least include that as an option. Not all of us are addicted to multiple things.

While you are at it, add in porn, sex, the internet etc etc.

The polls you have been putting up makes me wonder if you are something other than a snus fan which I am sure is ok, but if you are here to gather info about snus and snusers, be up front about it.

If I missed a post about that, please accept my apology!

First off, I really didn't mean to offend.

To be honest i'm thinking of going into addiction psychiatry or surgery. I spend a lot of time doing research on things before I do them. I already went through relevant medical literature and now I'm looking for personal experiences.

I am not doing any sort of study, or a brand rep from camel or some bullshit like that, lol. I am just new to snus, and like my previous vices (pipe smoking, hookah, and cigars) I did heavy research before committing.

An alternative explanation would be that this is my first forum, I am full of curiosity and trigger happy with new topics...

I also am sitting in front of a 300 page book on Immunology that I have to memorize by the end of May (course started at the begining of may) and have been using the forum as a distraction (er. um. I mean break).


For something not medically related I have recently tried:
General white portion (meh)
General wintergreeen (decent)
General Mini Mint (when my gf doesn't steal it from me)
Skruf Cranberry (my current favorite)


I have a Northerner order of:
Energy portion (excited to see about the caffeine uptake through gum)
Odens Kanel (looks promising)
and Toque Toffee Snuff (I only have experience with cheap american snuff)

I also ordered from Buysnus just a few hours ago:
Gottenburg No.2
Camel Original portion (hated american one but had to try this)
and Jakobson Ice Fruit.


Once again let me state that I have no alterior motives, I'm just new and excited about the new world of (the real) Snus and have a curiosity in particular towards health/disease.

Btw, all I watch is Discovery health and Poker After Dark on tv

Hey no problem man, like I said, I didn't mean anything by it at all

And welcome to the wonderful world of snus!
