Most vapes contain nicotine, which is very addictive. Over time, your brain and body get used to having nicotine, which means you may have nicotine withdrawal symptoms when you quit vaping.
Vaping can have many negative effects on your physical health, including lung, heart and brain damage and cancer, as well as negative effects to your mental health including depression, anxiety and more.
