I'm not addicted to nicotine as far as I know , I hace been an intermittent and social smoker but during really stressful times I chainsmoke , even without inhaling the smoke , I have the urge usually before a panic attack, then I take the benzo and that urge is suddenly gone.

I can go days, weeks even months without cigarettes but when anxiety raises my stupid brain thinks smoking is going to stip it and prevent me to take the medication in order to calm down.

Spoiler: I end up taking the medicacion because it didn't help
