I don't know how people who smoke can watch the current commercials they show, like the one with the woman who had the tips of her fingers amputated, the man who can't swim because he'd drown if water got into the hole they had to make in his throat, or the one with them removing the fatty artery deposit I just saw, and not quit, or at least try to. My mother smoked and growing up, my sister and I always thought it was gross. My sister started smoking at 19 though. She tried to quit several times, but didn't manage it until after my mom passed away at 56 all from complications due to smoking. It's gotta be really hard like you said. I think people who can quit probably can do anything they set their mind to.
