Eli5: how come a smoker can sleep all through the night without their cravings waking them up? But as soon as they are awake they need to smoke!

Nicotine withdrawal symptoms:
irritability
restlessness
anxiety
insomnia
difficulty concentrating
fatigue.
If you’re sleeping you wouldn’t notice fatigue, difficulty concentrating, insomnia, anxiety or irritability because you are sleeping. Restless probably has something to do with the fact that smokers tend not to sleep as well. I don’t think it’s uncommon for smokers to wake up in the middle of the night and feel anxious and restless and have trouble going back to sleep so they have a cigarette – which used to lead to many house fires before anti-smolder traits were adopted in cigarettes (still not perfect).
