new guy the new england area (US)
hello everyone. I am fairly new to the forums here and thought it would be a good idea to introduce myself and give some background info. I have been an avid smoker of cigarettes since I was 16 years old, however, I never really enjoyed it as others do (I am 19 years old now). My friends all smoke so it was just a phase for me, but the nicotine stuck with me as well has the habit of doing it everyday. I tried many times to quit, but miserably failed. I heard of snus and thought maybe this would be the best way get rid of the nasty smoking habit and replace it with a safer one to get my nicotine fix.
I initially purchased some marlboro snus, TERRIBLE mistake. I didn't even know what real swedish snus was like then but I would take smoking over marlboro snus. Halfway into the marlboro snus, I purchased Camel snus hoping it would be better, one more time, a terrible mistake. I researched a bit online and found my way towards REAL snus. I visited my local tobacco store and they had some General Snus there so I bought a can of General Regular portions and a can of General White portions. Yum. I have been using this stuff for about 2 weeks and I have stopped smoking completely since I bought the General Snus. After I finish these cans, I will go on to experiment with other snus brands and flavors.
I feel much less jittery as I don't feel nicotine withdrawals and have very constant and controlled levels of nicotine in my system with snus. I am not that guy outside desperately looking for my lighter in freezing temperatures to light up anymore. My lungs are already starting to thank me for it. Although I did not smoke for a long time, it was one habit of mine that I really hated (the smell, ashes in my car, headaches, trouble breathing at the gym, etc.). Smoking was simply not for me.
Anyways, long story short, I'm real happy I have been introduced to the snus world and will never look back to smoking again. I'm also glad I found this forum to be able to talk about snus with other users. Cheers everyone!
