I smoked for seven years. Recently, I was up to two packs a day. As of one week ago, I've been attempting to quit.

Negatory. I'd rather not have lungs that look like this. In addition, I really see no point to it. For those that do smoke... Why? |
People smoke for the same reasons that other people overeat, drive above the speed limit, do drugs, or have unsafe sex. All of these things release chemicals in the brain that make you feel good. It is human nature to want to feel pleasure.
I know nothing about you, and am not accusing you of actually doing these things, but take a look at some of your own personal habits. Do you drink alcohol, have sex with multiple partners, do drugs, eat unhealthy foods, or drive in an unsafe manner? If you don't, more power to you, but if you do, why? All can be detrimental to your personal health. What makes them differ so much from smoking?
