Welcome to the Attention Deficit Disorder Expert Podcast Series by Attitude magazine.

Hey everyone, good afternoon. Welcome to Attitude magazine's weekly ADHD

experts broadcast. Today we'll be talking to Kristen Seymour about something really important

about what parents need to know about vaping. Vaping, which is the active inhaling

and exhaling the vapor produced by heated nicotine liquid is extremely widespread these days.

E-cigarettes have been around for more than a decade, but vaping rates have skyrocketed in recent years especially among teens and adults.

It's so new that most parents of teens don't really know the risks and the warning signs.

And known risks include lung irritation, carcinogens, and elevated heart-rated

reading blood pressure, but Kristen Seymour is going to tell us much more

about that, including why teams with baby issue are diagnosed with baby

H.D. are at such an increased risk for vaping. How to talk about vaping with your

kids, the signs that you might look forward to that might signal that your teen is

vaping, how teens and students obtain vaping devices, what to do to detect

the presence of nicotine at home,

and finally finding a clinician if you think your teen is addicted.

So I think it's an important topic.

We're very pleased to have a real expert here today.
