Nicotine also has clear psychoactive effects beyond just alleviating addiction to nicotine. I honestly wonder how the myth that it's not psychoactive began, if it's from some people just not reacting as strongly as others to it or if it's a distorted retelling of the state a nicotine addict can end up in where the strongest effect it has is stopping its own withdrawal symptoms.
I think there's a popular quitting cigarettes book that frames nicotine addiction like this and maybe framing it in that way helps some people to quit? pretty sure this is a half remembered thing from an episode of true anon
surely you're thinking of nicotine??? either that or you have the least amount of adhd of anyone on earth, caffeine is absolutely a stimulant
