Hi,
It is not the smoking giving insomnia, but the underlying stress and anxiety are making you smoke and insomnia.
The control of basic stress is mandatory to cover up both issues.
As a medical student at AIIMS, you are far better knowing that smoking is hazardous in thousands of ways and you have to be on track to quit it anyhow.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
