An unexpected benefit to quitting nicotine

Quitting vaping (again) has had the same, expected benefits as last time, primarily getting my voice back and being able to sing high notes again without straining, and just better breathing in general, BUT there’s one unexpected benefit that I’ve noticed that I didn’t notice last time:

Now that I’ve quit smoking, vaping, and just nicotine in general, I rarely drink anymore. And if/when I do, it’s usually just one drink. One beer, one glass of wine, one shot, etc. Why? Well, it just doesn’t appeal much to me anymore. I’ve associated nicotine and alcohol in my head for so long. Drinking numbs my throat so much so that I can vape/smoke more and take bigger drags off my vape or cigarette, giving me more of a buzz. But now? If I have more than one drink, my nicotine cravings shoot through the roof, so I avoid it. That’s a win-win for my health!
