This study is looking at ways to help people with mental illnesses who smoke reduce the harm from cigarettes, especially if they aren't ready to quit completely. It compares providing e-cigarettes (NJOY) alone with providing e-cigarettes along with behavioral support called SWITCH IT. SWITCH IT involves coaching sessions and opportunities to explore e-cigarette options. The study aims to see if these approaches can reduce how much you smoke and how much nicotine your body takes in. You might be able to join if you are 21 or older, speak English, smoke at least 10 cigarettes a day, and have a diagnosis like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, major depressive disorder, or anxiety disorders. The study is currently unclear about its recruitment status and plans to enroll 250 participants.
