former smokers, do you ever have random moments months or years later where you just get textbook "cravings" symptoms? (lemmy.world)

I'm so fucking irritable right now, every little thing is annoying me and my chest is tight, I keep clenching my teeth. I'm very familiar with these things, these are how my body is telling me "go smoke a ciggy"

Problem is, I haven't done that for a year and a half. I've had this happen before, sometimes years on into my quittings, its always random and it's always insufferable, like I'm a former psychonaut who accidentally cracked his spine 20 years later. Does this happen to anyone else out there? Any tips? I had a glass of wine but it didn't help take the edge off much

Done plenty my man, unless I get a guided therapy session with the specific aim of cessation I doubt one more time dosing is gonna do much

Meth is great for stopping nicotine. You won't want nicotine when you're high on meth.

Better try a few more, just in case.
