I can relate to that when I was working before I had my boys I used to smoke more than when I was not working. It wasn't that I had more time to smoke, but when you only have 15mins for a coffee/ciggy break, I managing to smoke 2 ciggys in that break and maybe only 1 or 2 mouthfulls of coffee.
When I stopped working I would still have the same amount of time for a cup of coffee 'break', but I would only smoke 1 ciggy and drink a full cup of coffee.
Maybe it was because at work I was always working to deadlines, or maybe it was because I knew it would be a few hours before I could have my next fix, were as at home I could have my next fix whenever I wanted it.

In studies that have analyzed the impact of life stressors, depression, emotional support, marital status, and income, researchers have concluded that an individual with a high stress level is approximately 15 times more likely to be a smoker than a person with low stress. About half of smokers identify workplace stress as a key factor in their smoking behaviour.
