DON'T get overzealous
Greeting everybody,
This might need to be transfered into the newbie section, so I apologize ahead of time.
I am not new to snus, but new enough. I used snus to quit smoking, and the first time, suceeded, somewhat. I live in America, where sweedish snus is hard to come by. We have camel. That is a scary thought, an american company, with american tobacco that refuses to give out the stuff that they put in there. So I found a place that sells General Mint.
I bought a box (tin?) and used them all in about 2 days. I went back and bought out the remaining 5. After the last portion was used up. They told me that the snus was not selling fast enough to keep fully stocked, which forced me to buy a pack of smokes. I imediatly went on line and found buysnus.com and made a huge order. 20 cans of strong/extra strong mixed portions. I fell in love with snus and decided that after 15 years of smoking, this was the way to quit.
I recieved my package FAST and started using the snus right away. I noticed that I used far less, due to the nicotine difference. I finished my last tin, and ran to the gas station to pick up the general. I blew threw that can with in a day. I started to research. My now go to snus was 20mg and the general is 8. More then double the nicotine. I switched back to the average nicotine strength, and still have not smoked since. This was about a year ago. quiting smoking after 15 years with snus.
WORD TO THE NEW SNUS USER. Buy ONE can of extra strong and a few cans of the regular portions. In the morning, start with one strong, and then the rest of the day use the normal stuff. After diner, or before bed, pop in an extra strong. Snus is safer, but if you switch from low to high nicotine, you can waste money on the habbit when you dont get enough nicotine. Just something to keep in mind, if you do not always want to use such a high nicotine snus. The normal strength will help you quit smoking. Trust me.
