This study is looking at how reducing social media use might affect young adults who use e-cigarettes. Researchers want to see if spending less time on social media changes how much young adults vape, and if it impacts their mental health. You might be able to join if you are 18-25 years old, use social media daily, own a smartphone, and have used a nicotine e-cigarette on 1-19 days in the past month. Participants will complete surveys and share screenshots of their social media use. The study will compare those who reduce their social media use to those who continue using it as usual. The main goal is to understand if reducing social media use can lead to a decrease in vaping.
