Have not had a cigarette for 12 weeks but I feel so depressed anybody else feel like this. I only think about cigarettes occasionally now. But I feel so anxious

It is just a phase and it will blow over. Put on some music that you like, do things you enjoy and find something to keep busy and happy. Did you know that some foods raise our seretonin and chocolate can give us that raise in dopamine which we miss when first quitting smoking.

Congrats on your 12 weeks. If you can do 12 weeks, you can do more. It is not the TIME but how you feel that will determine the outcome. Be proud and HAPPY about the changes you have made. Focus on the positive and you will be fine.
