Because I tend to be the mom or even grandma friend in a group and I'm concerned about my friend's health, so I'll say stuff like "wow you ARE smoking a lot" because I see people I like hurting themselves. I know it's useless and annoying but it's like a primal instinct of "no, bad, why destroy your lungs?". But I also congratulate them when they smoke a bit less and ask why they do smoke in the first place, when we get comfy enough to reach that point.
Oh yeah and the swings it will put your mood in when not smoking or the literal 'hangover' feeling you can get from smoking too much. I finally cut waaaaay back after quite a few years. It's undoubtedly a little hard to not go a little crazy sometimes and just buy an ounce, but that's more of an addictive personality issue.
