It’s good to know proper study has been done but you can talk with any smoker and infer - if they don’t admit it openly - from their words they use cigarettes to ease off the stress. And when the nicotine fails, it’s ugly to see.

Double edged sword tho. nicotine helps me relax for a little while, but going without just makes it worse than it already was.

I feel you. Been trying to quit for years now, and I have a stupid dilemma: I use it too much and it makes me sick. Use it less, I get sick from lack of use. But without it entirely, I’m out of commission.
