What if I rephrase the question?

Is the act of addiction without attempting to stop immoral?

For a whole person to be immoral means weighing up every aspect of their being - something I have niether the tools, time or inclination to undertake.

Am I immoral because I smoke?
No - I have morals, I act on them, I care but I'm also far from perfect.

Is smoking immoral?
It has few positive outcomes, it is likely to cause harm to those I love, it is certainly self centred - so yes I think smoking is immoral.

But I am not immoral.....
