ABOUT THE CHALLENGE


YOUTH ARE FACING TWO HEALTH CRISES.

A mental health crisis and a vaping public health crisis pose increasing threats
to a generation of young people. These two are linked in ways many may not
realize, according to a body of peer-reviewed studies.

While it is well known that nicotine harms developing brains, including by
making young people more susceptible to addiction, lesser known are the worrying
connections between nicotine and mental health. Though nicotine has not been
found to directly cause mental health conditions and more research is needed,
peer-reviewed studies reveal troubling links, including research that shows
nicotine addiction can intensify symptoms of depression and anxiety.

Creating healthy coping strategies are important when addressing one's mental
health and overall well-being. Whether that is finding a new hobby, getting
outside, exercising, or talking to someone you trust.

Create a piece of original artwork that either illustrates healthy coping
mechanisms that might help you quit vaping or how you would encourage a friend
who vapes to find a new positive coping mechanism that is not vaping.

We will award one (1) Grand Prize Winner with $5,500, a Supreme merchandise gift
pack AND their artwork may be featured on truth® merchandise. Four (4) Runner Up
winners will each receive $1,125 and a Supreme merchandise gift pack.

DID YOU KNOW?

NICOTINE ACTIVATES RECEPTORS IN THE BRAIN WHICH CAN THEN CRAVE NICOTINE WHEN YOU
AREN’T USING IT. THIS CAN MAKE YOU FEEL MORE STRESSED UNTIL YOU SATISFY THAT
CRAVING WITH MORE NICOTINE, AND THIS CYCLE CONTINUES.

NICOTINE ADDICTION CAN INTENSIFY SYMPTOMS OF DEPRESSION AND ANXIETY AND INCREASE
STRESS LEVELS.

VAPING NICOTINE IS ASSOCIATED WITH SLEEP PROBLEMS. IN A STUDY USING PATH DATA,
E-CIGARETTE USE WAS ASSOCIATED WITH HIGHER ODDS OF SLEEP-RELATED COMPLAINTS;
INCLUDING BAD DREAMS, SLEEPING RESTLESSLY, OR FALLING ASLEEP DURING THE DAY;
COMPARED TO NON-USE.
