    “Feen” is slang that means to want something obsessively or to have a strong desire for it.

    fiend An evil spirit; a demon.

    I guess both would be correct

      Oh, what a good rabbit hole!

      I use fiend in exactly the same way: “I’m fiending for a cigarette,” etc.

        I actually did put fiend in originally but when I went to search to make sure it meant what I thought it meant it kept popping up as meaning something else, so I kept searching until I found feen haha
