Currently, you seem to get the fix craving at set intervals regardless of when you last used the drug. It doesn't really make sense – you shouldn't get the craving if you used the drug 5 minutes ago.

If the timer was reset whenever you used the drug, it would be far easier to e.g. plan outings from the Well, not having to wonder when the next craving will come. Especially important for a mizzar addict, given that normally the only means of getting the fix is located physically in Ephia's Well rather than as an item you can carry around.

Same logic as when a smoker gets his fix just before boarding the plane. You control it that way. Should be possible.

Addiction and control should not be used in the same sentence. Getting cravings regardless of when you last used a drug is normal for anyone who has dealt with addiction. The only scale that exists is between want it-need it.
