Hi Rainne,
25 days is awesome first off!!!
I know in the beginning of my quit, the very first week, day 3 in fact, I was in the office and right outside the window a man was smoking. I didn't see anyone at first, I was just typing and then I smelt IT. (blah!) IT was horrible when I smelt it for the first time sinced I had just quit. In fact, it repulsed me for the first few weeks in the beginning. But it started to taper off after around 30 days, so it didn't bother me to the point of repulsion that I had first experienced. It was rather now just walk fast and don't breath it in. Then around 40-50 days it became much better. I would smell it and it had no effect on me. Now, at almost 80 days in, when I smell it, it is almost enjoyable, like the smell of coffee first thing in the morning. So it is like an outdoorsy kind of smell for me now and I admit there are still times that I can't stand it and other times are much better. I suppose it works similarly to the days some craves are worse than others, and some there are none at all, so with smell it may affect us also. Some days are worse than others, some days it will have no affect at all.
Keep up the fantastic quit Rainne!!
Many Blessings,
Eve
