*In Norway, current snus users differ from current smokers by having a higher socio-economic status and no detectable association with anxiety and depression. This suggests that the relationship between tobacco use and anxiety and depression is associated with the administration method.

*"On average, people with a mental illness die up to 25 years younger than the general population, and many die from smoking-related chronic diseases. Tobacco-related diseases contribute to approximately 53 percent of deaths among people living with schizophrenia, 50 percent among people with depression, and 48 percent among people with bipolar disorder. It’s estimated that somewhere over 20 percent of people in the US live with a mental illness. But this population smokes almost half of all the cigarettes sold around the country each year."

*Activist-group rhetoric aside, no evidence implicates vaping in teenage depression. There is an established link between the disease and nicotine consumption, though it's a complicated relationship that doesn't lend itself to political causes.

*The Truth Initiative seems to be aware that mental illness often leads to nicotine use as patients seek symptom relief, pointing out that its “surveys reveal that many young people cite feelings of stress, anxiety, or depression as reasons they start and continue vaping.”

*"Professional organizations like RANZCP coming out in favor of tobacco harm reduction really matters, because people with psychiatric diagnoses suffer disproportionately from the harms of tobacco smoking. In Australia 70 percent of people with schizophrenia and 61 percent of people with bipolar disorder smoke. But incredibly, Australia has completely banned vaping products."
