Hmm, perhaps working out your view on this before yo started would have been a wise thing to do?

Yes, it is. How old are you? I am 47 and smoked for 33 years. I quit this past New Years. It's very difficult to do (or I would have quit sooner!) And it gets harder to quit, the longer you smoke. I was up to 3 packs a day.
I didn't quit for my own health but for other reasons. One reason was because of the money. I decided I had better things to do with $10/day. If you want to quit, find your own reasons, not someone else's. Then try a 12-step program. Seriously, it's the only thing that worked for me. I tried pills, gum, books. Adapting the Narcotics Annonymous 12-step program to my nicotine addiction worked.
