How to Handle Nicotine Withdrawal at Work Without Tanking Focus
By Pouched Team · February 28, 2026
Why Work Triggers Relapse
Work combines stress, context switching, and routine cues. Most slips are pattern-driven, not willpower failures.
Window-Based Planning
Define your top two craving windows and assign one replacement action to each. Keep the plan tiny enough to run under pressure.
Meeting Protocol
Use a pre-meeting breathing reset, water, and note-taking as behavioral substitutes. Short protocol, repeated daily, compounds fast.
How Pouched Helps
Track window-specific usage and compare week-over-week. Better trend visibility reduces guesswork and improves adherence.
