Nicotine helps me relax and calms anxiety. I don't smoke inside and have a busy life (no busier than the rest of you). As a result, I smoke cigarettes when short on time or for a quick fix and when stressed.
Pipe smoking for me helps slow things down, to relax and unwind. Preferably with a book and bottomless cup of coffee.
I don't enjoy pipes when stressed or cold, so I have more cigarettes in the winter, after work, and mornings. Zyn pouches and vape help when driving (not a car smoker) or in the home.
I smoke less cigarettes when I smoke a pipe and used cigarette money to help build a modest cellar as a result.
Like others here, if time were no object and I smoked inside, cigarettes would likely fall by the wayside for "emergencies" only. I'm hoping to quit cigarettes eventually, but not in the immediate future.
I run on nicotine, caffeine, and hatred, with a splash of alcohol for good measure (just kidding ... kind of). So I use several types of nicotine to get through the day. While I don't recommend it, they work for me.
