Hi, NMC. Listen to Free's advice, she's right on the money.
Most quitters go through a "down" period around the one month mark. It is quite normal and temporary, so just hang in there. It does get so much better if you just give it a chance. :)
Congratulations on 25 smoke-free days, NMC. Keep up the good quit.

no more,
You maybe reaching the hazard zone. Many members have commented that at around 30 and 100 days the cravings come back to haunt you one more time :) This is normal and will pass. Don't dwell on it and use those coping mechanisms again to help you through.
Maybe it is time for some relaxation and you time :) Pick a day and plan it for you and enjoy yourself, this can help refresh you. Post to us if you need help, we are always here :)
Keep Strong,
Josie
