Does anyone know anything about or had any experience with their A huffing? This behavior caught me totally off guard!

Unfortuneately, I don't. But it wouldn't surprise me if they did.

Alcoholics/addicts will do anything to get high. Huffing or using "inhalants" is pretty common but super dangerous to the brain. Often done with paint thinner, gas...

My son has tried many things in his addiction. Huffing was the one thing that absolutely terrified me just thinking about it. I looked for the signs of him huffing all the time. But it is not something he has done (as of yet). It is terribly dangerous. The most overt signs of huffing are sores around the mouth and nose. I am not sure of the behavior that comes from huffing but I do know it kills the brains cells very quickly.
What are the signs or behavior you are seeing?
