IMO those 3 kind of deaths on yourself are "self inflicted". With the exception of alohol abuse in some cases, you are killing just yourself with tabacco and unhealthy food and not the people around you. Alcohol abuse is somewhat similar to how drugs abuse as it will kill the user on the long/short term, but the side effects of alcohol and drugs can kill others in certain situations.
