ADHD, Vaping, and Smoking: What You Need to Know

ADHD isn't so much a deficit of attention but more of self-regulation. Research suggests that those with ADHD have earlier onsets of smoking and of smoking longer. Much of this is related right back to the challenges of self-regulation. In this episode of Attention Talk Radio, ADHD coach Jeff Copper (https://digcoaching.com) interviews Dr. John Mitchell at Duke University (http://sites.duke.edu/adhdprogram/). They talk about vaping and smoking, their impact on attention, the urge to self-medicate, the long-term effects of smoking, and some of the challenges associated with it.  If you smoke or vape, this is a show you won't want to miss.  Attention Talk Radio is the leading site for self-help Internet radio shows focusing on attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and attention deficit disorder (ADD), including managing symptoms of attention deficit disorder, adults with ADD, or adults who have children with ADHD.
