Correlation doesn’t imply causation and all but I’ve noticed since I largely quit smoking back in December(still smoke occasionally but broke the habit) I’ve been doomscrolling a lot more since then.

It used to be that I would need a dopamine fix, step outside for a smoke and then go back to working or doing something productive but since quitting, I’ve been basically constantly doomscrolling, even while working or cooking, my screen time was already pretty high but it just skyrocketed since quitting smoking.

Did anyone else go through something similar after quitting or might have an explanation as to why? Thank you.
