Using e cigs, vape pens, pods and pipes can lead to serious consequences, and we’re not just talking getting kicked off the team or being banned from school events – that’s just the beginning. That dream college will likely remain a dream. Career aspirations? Better lower your expectations. Especially since your future health and wellbeing will be compromised, leaving you with at best shortness of breath and a chronic cough, and at worst – brain damage, lung disease, and possibly death. Still think it’s not-so-bad? Not-so-much.
It’s time to take vaping seriously.
