Thanks Briarwood - I know that but just missing it today - have got a vape with zero nicotine which I got to use in emergency like last weekend when I had party both nights - tried once but not helpful πŸ˜„

You stop that kind of thinking hon..breath in breath out.. maybe you should get out the house awhile and get some fresh air..πŸ˜ŠπŸ˜ŠπŸ€—

Hi it isn’t really a craving as such - feel more a habit or missing something - πŸ™„

That's normal too . For a long time we have considered the cigarette as a friend. After quitting we have to replace that feeling with something else e.g. a new hobby or perhaps one that we have abandoned from lack of time. Now we have time we just have to do something with it.
