Prevention

Things that can Cause Teens to smoke

  • Peer pressure is a big factor because “everyone is doing it” and “its cool”
  • Not setting a good example (you can’t help them stop vaping if you are also seen vaping)
  • Don’t leave vape stuff lying around

 

 

Steps to help Prevent Vaping/ Addiction to Vaping

  • Get rid of vaping products
  • Identify some alternative coping ways to help
  • Buy gum, hard candies, toothpicks, and other things to help fight the urge
  • Practice quitting slowly by doing a test run for a couple days to ease yourself out of it so that you don’t have withdrawals and end up relapsing
  • Expect peer pressure (these times going to be hard because its the time where everyone wants to “fit in” and be a part of the group)
