Welcome to HCM

I went through your details. Tobacco is addictive. Cigarette also contains 4000+ carcinogenic chemicals other than nicotine. There are many adverse health effects due to smoking. The adverse effects are much more than you can imagine. You may go through this link to know more. http://www.cdc.gov/tobacco/data_statistics/fact_sheets/health_effects/effects_cig_smoking/

The best method is to leave it and continue with your will power. There are
other methods like Nicotine Replacement therapy and pharmacotherapy combined. Please consult a psychologist or psychiatrist for rehabilitation therapy.
