My understanding is that nicotine gum is bad for your gums and rubbing nicotine on your skin is hard to dose effectively. I don’t understand what the issue with vaping is: just use diluted e-cig fluid and restrict yourself to a puff or two. That’s what has worked for me: I bought a e-cig starter pack and still haven’t gotten through the first cartridge over a year later (with occasional use). Do we expect delivery route to affect habituation?
FYI, “habituation” is a technical term in psychology that does not mean “form habit”. Got me confused there for a bit.
What I meant to say there was not”form a habit” but instead “tolerance”, which is similar to habituation but for chemicals instead of external stimuli.

I would expect dosage mechanisms that quickly bring the nicotine to the brain would be more addictive.

Seems plausible.

Oh, OK.
