P.S. Health warnings are not enough to make me quit.
I found myself thinking like this at one point too. Then what started bugging me was like, 3-4 puffs into a cigarette, I would always hate to have to finish it. I wanted to just put them out but couldn't waste it so I'd just begrudgingly smoke the rest of the cigarette.

This prompted me to evaluate what I was doing and pull the goddamn trigger to quit. If you enjoy every inhale then I can't see how you can quit.

I quit last saturday night and this til the point I quit was sooo true. My chest would hurt , I could feel my pulse quickening , my heart racing and still I would smoke em to the nub. Two days after stopping I ran from the back of my yard to my patio while walking the dogs and felt GREAT after, if I'd done that even 2 days earlier it was guaranteed to be within 5 mins of smoking a cig and I woulda felt terrible, but when I did that then I wasn't even winded. That was prime motivation to continue.

I don't even know if that was psychosomatic, but if it was more power to it. Your mind is very important bwhen it comes to quitting cigs.
