Smoking is also ridiculously prevalent among schizophrenics, and nicotine seems to help with the negative symptoms.
I smoked just long enough to get addicted, but successfully weaned myself onto nicotine lozenges some years back. From what I've read, nicotine itself is fairly safe, but I wonder what it's helping/hurting (I have several rare diseases.)
