That actually makes a lot of sense, since nicotine is a stimulant. It would be a relaxing, calming thing for someone with ADHD.

My husband also can’t drive any distance without stopping for a smoke. When we’re out shopping if we’re in the store too long he starts getting agitated, reminding me of the time and saying how we need to get going. And if I ignore him in a few minutes he’ll tell me he’s going out for a smoke.

I have always thought that the smoking after sex thing has to do with the depletion of nicotine in the system from physical exertion. But I don’t smoke so I don’t really know.
