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

Almost 3 years after quiting a heavy 26 years habit. I quit cold turkey.
Currently being forced to move having no income and no social circle and family is distant.
Super proud I haven’t broken yet. I want one ALL THE DAMN TIME.
I use physical exercise to help me get through my cravings.
If a random internet stranger’s comment means anything to you… keep it up dude!
I haven’t smoked in 10+ maybe 15+ years, can’t really remember.
I still want a cigarette.
Feel exactly this… Sometimes you just still want one randomly. But 99.999% of the time do not think about it at all anymore
I’ve never done any drug or experience as remotely addicting as nicotine.

Not random moments, but intense anxiety is a trigger decades later. And it’s not just traumatic stuff, but positive anxiety like first dates.
