Quitting smoking while quitting drinking....too lofty?

At around the same time most evenings, my body craves BOTH cigarettes and alcohol.

I cant stand either during the day...but yes, around 9-11pm my body/mind start urging me to fill it with both, no matter how stupid it would be, and no matter how many times I told myself I wouldn't do it.

Anyone else struggle with this dual addiction? Alcohol definitely makes me want to smoke (NEED, actually), but only sometimes does caving into a cigarette make me wanna grab a beer, which could mean another cigarette, then another beer, and then a mixed drink....etc, etc.

I really know very little about the current state of "Smoking Cessation Products" or treatments. My aunt was on Chantix and said it made her CRAZY...major anxiety symptoms.

Any info or insight would be appreciated

THANKS!
