Abstract

The study aimed to find the association between e-cigarette use and mental health among youth in the United States. Google Scholar was used as the search engine in this study. PubMed was used as a database. We focused on observational studies, looking into the association between vaping and mental health conditions among adolescents in the United States. We found 1,692 studies and removed duplicates. After reviewing abstracts and titles, we manually removed 1,684 studies. Finally, eight studies were included. E-cigarette use was associated with mental health, such as depression, anxiety, psychological distress, internalizing, and externalizing. Only one study showed that there was no association between vaping and mental health conditions. It is essential to increase awareness regarding the correlation between electronic cigarettes and mental health among adolescents.
