Newbie headache?

[swilley07]

Well i don't use ANY nicotine at all, never smoked a cigarette and recently started snusing! I've snused once a day for a week now and im still getting headaches after 20 minutes. Any ideas/suggestions? I know it happenes because of too much nicotine but im using general miint (8g of nicotine)... any ideas on how to stop these?

Cheers!

EDIT: okay i still get a buzz and love the shit, no im not forcing myself to like it i enjoy relaxing after a hockey game. As i already stated I KNOW ITS FROM NICOTINE, has this happened to anyone?

Why???

Lets see, you never smoked and don't use any nicotine but you want to force yourself to like snus? Try smoking a bit crack or meth before you use the snus. It seems to mellow it out a bit.

Another suggestion, if you are not hooked on nicotine or snus yet I would start with General Wintergreen.

quit using snus .. really if you don't have an addiction to nicotine .. why start ?


but that do i know .. maybe you should start with American camel (low nicotine) and work yer way up


Sit down and Grab a STERK !

The only way to stop these headaches are to quit using snus. Or just use a lot of it and push your way through.

If you can, you might want see if you can get some half nic pouches(4mg nic) and use those for a week or 2, and then move to regular strength snus.
And I suggest using lös - Just 'cause it's so much better

After a couple of months you'll be permanently addicted.

Yeah - go ahead. Get some Sterks in and double barrel. If you're that stupid you might as well get on with it.

Stop swallow, start spitting. Drink more water during a day.

I have a friend who had never used any kind of tobacco products before, who started snusing. He got the headaches only with sterks, then in army he started smoking, after coming out started snusing again, now been on regular strength snus for 3 years. So it might happen when never used tobacco before, but then why bother it, if you really don't need it so much....

Swilley, I don't want to sound like a broken record asshole to you, but; if you are not currently addicted to nicotine THEN QUIT NOW! I smoked 2 to 3 packs a day for decades, not because I thought it was fun or I wanted to, it was only to feed my addiction and keep the withdrawals at bay. Dont get me wrong, I love Swedish snus and it helped me kick the cigs, I promote it as much as possible. But nicotine addiction is hell and I don't suggest you fuc* with the snus, unless you want to play with fire...

[rickcharles606]

I'm guessing you need to try Oden's Extreme ;-)

[squeezyjohn]

If only they still made Level - that would be perfect! Just use it for at least a year and then if you still don't like the taste ... give up.

No previous nicotine experience and you just decided to start the snus...

Let me ask you this... Did you see someone else using snus, or is snus the latest craze amongst your schoolmates?

If I were you, I wouldn't give into fads. It's not wise to start an addiction (especially if you're trying to "impress" your peers).
