What even is vaping and why are people dying from it? Not only are people everywhere becoming addicted to nicotine, but also in the past year, vaping related lung diseases and illnesses have been popping up all over the country. The full cause and connection between vaping and the death toll is not yet completely clear, but one thing is for sure: we need to talk about this. 

Listen in on this week’s #SophieSix conversation, as part of our series of conversations focusing on mental health, for six questions, six answers, and six perspectives to consider, all in less than six minutes. You ready? Let’s go!  

In this episode, you will find answers to these six burning questions: Is there really a link between vaping and mental health? Is vaping safer than smoking cigarettes? Are JUULs safe for kids? Are addictive flavors the real problem? Will vaping bans prevent people from getting their hands on vapes? Are portrayals of vaping and addiction in the media helping to curb addiction?
