I had very similar experiences @GonSo. The nicotine is all out of your system now, but the addiction is still there, the compulsion is still deeply ingrained. The cravings last a while but their strength will ebb as your quit grows. You did the right thing to just ignore it! Focusing on cravings can intensify them. Remember that cravings aren’t commands… just loud obnoxious commercials for junk you don’t wanna buy. Change the channel… distract yourself, go for a walk, shift your attention. You can do this!!!

7 months is awesome! Hope you’re doing great!

NOPE!

Welcome @GonSo. It’s great to hear that you have quit and that it’s going well so far. This is a great place for support, encouragement and fellowship with other souls who know what it’s like to be hooked on smoking… and who know what it’s like to break free once and for all! Read all you can. If you feel yourself wavering, post here before relapsing. The initial withdrawal can be bumpy, but it gets better soon. See you around!
