Doesn't it calm people down because the cravings are aggravating them, though?
no, it does actually calma you down when you first smoke, but you quickly build up tollerance so you end up smoking just to calm down the cravings, and eventually you need to ramp up usage
Nicotine is an interesting poison as rather than killing the bugs the plant sloooows them down and the nicotine stnkifies them makin em more attractive to predators.
So yeah it's calming
It slows them down because it's a paralytic
Sooooo relaxed
I usually don't like to be stiff when relaxed, but then again I also don't like to smoke I suppose lol
Nicotine is interesting because it has different effects at different dosages and metabolizes fast so smokers use it to kind of manually control certain hormonal symptoms. Another example: it's often used as an appetite suppressant because it's a stimulant but many addicts need nicotine after a meal to increase gut motility and stomach acid production or they'll get indigestion. They'll change how they take drags based on the dose needed. It's a drug that both acts on the sympathetic and parasympathetic systems.
