How much do you need to smoke in order to get withdrawals? I've been smoking 1 cigarette a day roughly for a little bit more than 1 year. I've been on and off with it though. I like it because it gives me a good base of calmness and boosts my mood and lessens social anxiety.

This past week I binged a little and was having 3-5 a day. I never done this before and I felt gross so I decided to cut it out.

2 days later I get a little bit of cravings, but right now I feel super depressed and a little anxious. Is it possible in any way that I'm facing withdrawals or are those only for the heavy smokers that smoke half a pack-full pack a day? Or am I stressed because of other external factors?

Smoke more than 1 at once and you should be good.

> 1 cigarette a day
It's a fucking whole lot more than that.

You've probably developed a small ritual habit, but you're not addicted in anything beyond that. Just suck it up for two days. You don't have withdrawls, nicotine requires at least a half-pack daily habit to have physical withdrawl symptoms.
You're placebo-ing the fuck out of yourself

You are withdrawing, but it's nothing compared to pack a day fags

If a cigarette calms you, you're already hooked.

It isn't calming you - it's fighting the withdrawal symptoms.

Nicotine, like heroin and other addictive drugs, alters your body chemistry so that you-plus-nicotine comes to feel "normal" and you-without-nicotine feels bad.

So it is NOT social anxiety the cigarette fights, but the feelings generated by you-without-nicotine. You are not being calmed down, you are being refilled with the nicotine you need to feel "normal."

So then how long typically does it take for a somewhat light smoker to return to baseline levels?
