Hi guys, just thought I'd try and set up a thread for reduction/stopping tobacco use wether it be smoking, chewing or nasal snuff or pouches and the pros and cons of nicotine replacement therapy and if any of you guys can leave posts for others who are interested in such a topic. Thanks!
 
Mulungu, cytisine, and lobelia are three different natural things that can be very helpful. Lobelia is a partial agonist at nicotinic receptors that makes tobacco smoke more noxious so is cytisine without the later effect. Mulungu works on acetylcholine and also nicotinic receptors.
 
I'm currently on nicotine replacement therapy of nicotine microtabs and lozenges, I'm 49 had first ciggeratte at six years of age, smoked 10-20+ ciggerattes a day from the age of 11 upto 46 years old and last three years nasal snuff powder, I can't toke ciggerates hardly anymore and the nasal snuff powder can get a bit messy so now on nrt going okay but takes a bit of getting used to

This is a great idea! I’d be interested in learning.
I haven’t tried to replace Nic with anything, I just know if I smoke or vape or tears up my mouth and throat. Nic is such a shitty drug overall but there are some brain benefits. I’ve been stuck on nic patches for 6 months now.
 
Sinicuichi (Heimia salicifolia) plays with nicotnic receptors a little bit, but it's more choline dominant in its actions. I've found it does make nicotine less effective similarly to Bupropion though, which is a prescribed stimulant that sort of resembles a wacked out amphetamine. Bupropion was originally used to help people quit smoking cigarettes since it renders nicotine inactive, and at least in the US it's handed out like candy. I've been given a 6 month scrip of it and a 9 month scrip of it, both on accident, for a single month. I just have a jar full of loose bupropion now as a result.

A note about bupropion btw; despite its wildly prevalent availability, it can kill without much notice if you push the doses too high trying to chase the unique high that it produces, especially if insufflated. Don't risk that, just get normal speed if you're after that.
