As a long-time stimulant consumer (29 years) I find that neither caffeine nor nicotine even touch me anymore. I have heard other long-timers say this also. In trying to get off stimulants, I've desperately consumed nicotine--to the point of nausea--but it doesn't give me ANY "pick up" at all and I was a (light) smoker in the 90's.

I am trying to wean myself off a Dex-Ritalin combination. I don't know if it's like this for everyone, but taking Wellbutrin seemed to impair my memory improvement. I only saw improvement if I took nothing with stimulant activity. Memory improvement is VERY slow. It takes 1-2 years and then you'll be 85-90% of what you were before meds.
