    Really when it boils down to it, the shear mental habit is what tends to stop many from smoking. The habit of smoking when you wake up, or after a meal is a hard one to break.

    There is a famous quote: "Quitting smoking is extremely easy. I have done it many times". You get the point. It is addiction.

    Enjoying the experience of smoking and having cancer (completely unrelated to smoking, btw). Once you're already sick, getting sicker really doesn't matter that much.

    what keeps everybody from quitting smoking is all in their minds. quitting smoking is a matter of making up your mind and pushing through all of the physical withdrawals from the nicotine as well as the emotional and mental withdrawals of changing a habit. the American Cancer Society holds the Great American Smokeout every year on the third Thursday in November. if you are interested in quitting smoking or finding out about resources available to those trying to quit you should check this out! http://hubpages.com/hub/The-Great-Ameri … keout-2010
