There seems to be a body of evidence out there that suggests that nicotine acts as a boost to memory and function -
Obviously, the downsides of taking nicotine through cigarettes and tobacco well outweighs that potential nootropic ingestion.
My question, then, is whether other systems of nicotine delivery - such as gum, or dermal patches - could be used? And if so, is it a worthwhile cost-benefit (nootropic boost vs lifetime addiction to the demon nicotine) to invest in?

Nicotine withdrawal can still send someone into panic attacks, depression and even fevers. Not worth it.

But that's withdrawal.
Say if you were just chewing gum throughout the day, and withdrawal wasn't an issue.

Gum works really well but don't go overboard and don't stress your jaws too much.

When you smoke tobacco you'll get lost in your thoughts sometimes then it ends whilst your still smoking.

I've chewed nicotine gum for taking tests and it work pretty well
In my experience it allows for a greater degree of focus and slightly faster computational ability - the downside is that repeated use can actually lower one's baseline performance if a dependence is formed. Thats why I only really use it for tests and not every day work
Also that shit can make you puke if you aren't careful

oh, also nicotine alone isn't as habit forming as smoking it in tobacco - a lot of the additives in tobacco products are what cause the addiction
