What do you use to wake up?

For me, nothing works faster than Nicotine sublingual spray.
When you get up and feel groggy/meh, a spray and im sweet within a minute.
I live with quite a few people and when i see they look like shit, they take a spray of mine and they're sweet.
Caffeine doesn't seem to do that too well unless you have low tolerance, and i have been taking Nicotine daily (not all day) and it works great.

Interesting! The only partial nicotine agonist I had heard of was GTS-21. How does Cytisine compare safety-wise?

u/MisterYouAreSoDumb · Ceretropic

I have not seen a lot of safety data on GTS-21. It might be safer, since it is more selective. However, Cytisine is probably more Nicotine-like in the way it feels. I will have to get some GTS-21 to compare.

E-cigarettes less addictive than cigarettes

Replying to relbatnrut · You joke, but nicotine is so much more effective as a nootropic with MAOIs (at least for me).

Ohh I know. It just also makes it more addictive.
