How would self-censorship affect smokers? Would not being allowed to smoke in a resturant be one? All commerical ads directed towards the smokers? I don't know if these would be right. What would be some other reasons

Not being allowed to smoke in a restaurant is not SELF-censorship, because it's imposed by others; I don't have a choice.
However, I exercise self-censorship when I willingly go to an area away from nonsmokers to smoke. For instance, if I'm with non-smokers either in a smoking area or outdoors, I go as far away from them as possible to have a cigarette. Some smokers censor themselved by only allowing themselves so many cigarettes a day -- or don't smoke in their own homes.
I don't think many commercial ads are directed towards smokers.

When I quit smoking, I censored myself by making me eat one unsalted unroasted peanut ( which I hate)everytime I thought about smoking. It got to the point where I would have rather be hung by my toes than want to smoke...
I think psychologist call that self imposed aversion therapy.
