Hopefully the last obnoxious post on nasal snuff

I've read on wikihow.com that the proper method to take this form of tobacco is to sniff it gently, not snort it, into the front of the nasal passages.

I also read that a discharge is natural, and that the moisture created allows the scent of the tobacco to be discerned. I have not yet tasted the scent, although at times yesterday, I swore I could, very faintly.

When I sniff it off the back of my hand, lately I've found that I'm not taking it in my nose very deeply - I don't feel that instant nicotine rush I am told to expect.

So, just now taking a shot, I took it a little too deeply I guess. I coughed, felt it burn my throat a little, and my nose is dripping. However, I get a slight nasal tingling that doesn't hurt really, and I can smell the tobacco plainly.

I don't quite think I have it yet, so I was hoping anyone here who partakes of it could give me some pointers, please?

I'm also a little wary of nasal damage, could anyone possibly tell me how long they've been snuffing, and have you personally encountered the negative effects of it? How long will the nasal dripping continue?

Thanks for any help guys.
