You took too much. That can happen with any drug when you don't have a tolerance built up and take too large of a dose.
Of all the drugs you could take to help with autism symptoms, nicotine is one of the worst. Any benefits it might have are nothing compared to just how chemically addictive it is. There are many, many better options for helping with anxiety, both prescription and "experimental". I'd really advise against trying nicotine again, it really isn't worth it.
Going to 2nd this, not withdrawal but took to much, Nicotine at 1st can be nice, but real benefits only last around 15mins, and it quickly becomes something that does nothing but keep withdrawals away. Nicotine pouches still cary heath risks too, they are not a safe alternative, I thought the same thing. You’re not addicted yet, if you keep doing it you will be and it will suck.
I kept a pablo mini in for about 30min, so it wasn't very strong. Well, what other legal drug can be helpful and not very harmful?
Nicotine pouches are not cancer-risk free at all. They just caused different kinds of cancer. Signed, a nicotine pouche addict
I know that other oral route tobaccos like chewing tobacco and dip cause oral cancers, there's no long term studies yet for pouches but there are anecdotal evidences of the same for pouches
From a long time nicotine user, I'll address your bullet points.
Intense: A combination of no tolerance with being sensitive to it.
How do people enjoy: You're sensitive to it, what you described sounds like a case of nicotine poisoning. When I started vaping and rolled my own coils and all that jazz, I experimented a lot and consumed way too much nicotine in the beginning. The happiness is a lie, as well as the help with anxiety. Nicotine withdrawal feels very similar to being anxious at some stages. It is relief of those withdrawal symptoms that people associate with less anxiety or even happiness.
Are the symptoms related: I could not tell you that.
Addicted: Unlikely you'd be addicted after a single use case, that being said, it feels awful, but the awful tapers after about 3 days - the future cravings mean you're addicted, in the most tell tale way. I use nicotine pouches as I've moved away from smoking. I still want a good old fashioned Marlboro Red, AKA cowboy killers.
Why do people want to keep it up? Often its a situational thing. You smoke with friends on the weekend, but not during the week. Then its daily, because you start feeling withdrawal. Soon you're smoking a pack a day ten years later kicking yourself for ever trying it.
If you (or anyone else) can avoid nicotine, I advise it wholeheartedly. The simplest way is just not to start, cliched as that may be.
Wow thanks for the insight. I somehow experienced happiness some time after vomiting. I don't know if I felt relief, that it was over or just a feeling of having a secret (from my parents as I successfully cleaned myself before they arrived home). I would rather not start the addiction, but I could redo it sometime. And to not just talk about myself: Even if I don't know you, I still wish you to quit (if you want to of course).
If I was to try drugs to ease out, I would probably go for cannabis in a small dose. It's not physically addicting and some autism patients say it really helps them. Although all drugs are a form of roulette when it comes to the effects.
Well if I start an addiction, I have to be able to maintain it, so I would rather use legal drugs.
