In my opinion, no. I think what people call "boredom" is the restlessness and low-level anxiety associated with withdrawal and early recovery.
Or it's the only word they can use to describe that vague sense of discontent that only a drink will relieve.
But calmness? No. We know calm when we are experiencing it...no matter how long it's been.
