Smoking-Cessation for People With Mental Health Conditions

IS VAPING BETTER? –

June 28, 2024 – “One thing that was evident when I was in hospital for treatment was that almost everyone smoked,” he told Filter.“ It was clear that this was the norm, and little or no effort was made to help people with mental illness quit—it was just accepted, there was no advice or anything.” The researchers found that people with mental health histories were more likely than other respondents to try certain tools to quit smoking. These included vapes (38.8 percent, versus 30.7 percent), prescription NRT (4.8 percent, versus 2.7 percent) and websites (4.0 percent, versus 2.2 percent).

That speaks to the applicability of vapes, in particular, for this key group.
