I know it's gross, unhealthy, a stupid habit, makes no sense.

Trouble quitting cuz it's something to do with hands, fidgety, restless, oral fixation I think, and it gets me out of the house. Can't find a habit to replace it with.

Aren't there like herbal non-tobacco smokes?

I really wouldn't recommend those: you're still inhaling burnt plant matter, and while it might not be as bad as tobacco, that's not going to be great for you.

Also, those things probably aren't as controlled as tobacco so who the hell knows if they're even actually better for you.

I wouldn't be surprised. I used to use snus and found versions that are just coffee grounds inside. It's helped a ton with curbing cravings.
