Far from a “Worthless chemical”, mainly because it literally isn’t, it’s a naturally occurring plant substance. That has a lot of benefits behind it when not abused, there are Altzheimers drugs being developed based on Nicotine because of it’s Nootropic ability and can keep people lucid.
You’re doing what most do and conflating Nicotine with Smoking. They’re not the same thing. Nicotine promotes alertness, relaxation, helps indirectly with weight loss from appetite suppression, athletic performance etc. The laundry list of negative from cigarettes don’t negate that.
I dont’ doubt that, but you’re coming from smoking, which is very different than those using it otherwise as far as dependence. In your case, the nicotine lets you work on breaking the oral habit of continuing to smoke, but ultimately at some point you’ll still have to fight the nicotine addiction, but the smoking addiction will be gone. Most that just use the gum never get addicted to it. They should definitely make fractional doses for making that easier, but realistically chopping one in half and mixing it with another like flavored gum accomplishes that.
But to my point, cigarettes and smoking aside, Nicotine does have benefits either way. I use it as an addon to my preworkout as caffeine does zero for my energy. Been doing it for years, I can stop whenever I want, have a bunch of times, but haven’t found a cure for the energy end, and I like that stimulant feel. I’ve actually gone last week without any of it, mainly for money, but miss the bump, not sure if I’ll go back or not, wallet says not to. If the generic gum didn’t suck I’d just do that, but since Nicorette actually tastes like real gum… I dunno. My fahter in law who seems to be getting the possible start of Altheimers stays on top of shit with it, without it he’s a forgetful mess that constantly zones out.

I’m still very addicted to nicotine cessation products, despite a large drop in strength. I quit smoking months ago. Thanks

Asshole
I’ll take your childish one word snowflake response as you not having anything real to disagree with. As if you did, you would have.
Have a great day troll.
Maybe I just need a nicotine fix
‘I can stop whenever I want’ where have we heard that before?
Relevance?
