That's kinda how I quit too, it just lost its appeal one day. I've smoked two cigarettes on a whim at parties/bars since then, but the urge to smoke just never came back.
It's different from alcohol though. Based on what I've seen in family members and my parents' friends is that if your drinking is to the point of causing problems with your life then you're dealing with a lifelong addiction no matter how long you stay sober. **** lingers.

Alcohol is tricky bastard and alcoholism still isn’t really understood.
It has a multi-pronged attack and only one of those prongs has to get you. All I can say is if you see signs that you’re in the danger zone do yourself the biggest favor possible and just quit. Don’t be like well alcohol isn’t doing the exact same thing to me that fits my understanding of what alcoholism is so I’m ok. It doesn’t work like that.

The other day my mother told me "Everyone is drinking during the quarantine. Don't you see the posts about it?" in response to her uncontrollable day drinking. I wanted to slap her through the phone.

Back before I was drinking malt liquor they were one of the better bottom dollar beers. Now they just taste weak and sickly.
