Its just a hunch I got after seeing many people with mental health problems who also smoke. Especially considering all the ill effects it has on your body. I figured I'd post this since most people only see smoking as only effecting certain parts of your body from your neck down.

I've seen smoking diminish the vitality of too many loved ones, as well as take my grandmas life. Smoking is basically just a social norm, and I'd love to see it not have that status anymore. I've never exactly been addicted to anything before, so I can't say I understand addiction. But I believe society will only benefit if fewer people see getting addicted to cigarettes as a good idea. Smoking wouldn't be anywhere near the problem that it is if it didn't keep people coming back for more and more.

And yeah, I've noticed that describing the horrible effects that smoking has on ones health has no effect on ones desire to smoke after they're already addicted.
