The snus withdrawal

[Polluted]

Serious question why torture yourself? If your doing almost zero harm to yourself and others but getting enjoyment out of it why quit nicotine?

There are lots of reasons. Some people actually do have gum recession caused by snus, sometimes the addiction itself can be very unpleasant ( leave your can at home for 1 day and see how you feel by the time you get off work ). Some people need all the extra cash they can get and importing tobacco from across the globe is definitely a luxury expense.

First Week is hell. It's fascinating to watch your own brain rationalize any excuse in the book to buy another can.....you are aware of this madness but can do nothing to stop it.

You will get tired, very tired as nicotine is a stimulant. Then you will get hungry, VERY hungry. You will also get constipated. This lasts 2 weeks....then it's done, but like any form of nicotine the craving never really dies so to speak....not for a loo long time, but it's purely psychological. I started snusing again because I simply missed my morning ritual of coffee and a portion of snus!

I'm back to snusing, but all I do is use regular strength snus and try not to chain snus all day. I actually just threw out 20 cans of snus because there was a labeling issue on the website. Turns out they are 14 mg strength not the 9 originally listed.

O ya, and when you indulge again (which you will) the first portion you pop in your mouth will have your head spinning

There are some threads here on quitting that might give you a lot of info and insight

Use the search at the top right of the page to look for "Quitting Snus" that should get you started.

Also, it might help others if you keep this thread as a journal of your experiences. No telling who it might help in the future

Best of luck to you and let us know how it goes
