Keep the faith regarding quitting smoking. After a year thing get easier. I quit in 1989, it was the hardest thing I've had to do, but it's worth it. On very rare occasions I still find myself reaching to my shirt pocket, and then wondering what I was reaching for -- and then realize I was reaching for a cigarette. Kinda shocking when that happens, but it's shear habit. I have had NO desire to smoke for many years, and when around smokers I find the smell very annoying and discusting. The worst, though, is when cleaning up after family has been visiting and I get to empty the (outside) ashtrays. That smell of stale cigarette butts nearly makes me physically sick. You'll get there.
