Cravings may continue or return. If you're struggling, reaching out to a quit coach or healthcare professional can help.
Why try a brief reset?
Cravings are a normal part of nicotine withdrawal and can be triggered by situations, thoughts, or emotions. Practical actions can help you respond: change your environment, take a brief walk, distract yourself, or talk to someone supportive. A 90-second timer is a convenience, not a clinically proven universal craving duration.
When the craving doesn't ease
That's not a personal failure. Nicotine-replacement options and other FDA-approved medicines may reduce withdrawal symptoms. If you're an adult trying to quit smoking, ask a clinician or quit coach what support fits you.
