Topics

Andrew Huberman: 本期节目讨论青少年面临的风险行为，包括尼古丁（吸烟和电子烟）、大麻以及其他风险行为（危险驾驶、饮酒和危险性行为）。我们将探讨影响青少年风险行为的因素，例如家庭环境、同侪压力和社交媒体的影响，并了解如何帮助青少年避免或减少这些行为。 Bonnie Halpern-Felsher: 青春期是探索的时期，伴随身体和情绪发展变化、同侪压力和自我认知的探索。家庭冲突而非离婚本身是关键因素，父母的有效监督和参与至关重要。智能手机加剧了欺凌和风险行为的传播，但同时也提供了沟通和监控的便利。传统香烟吸烟率下降，但电子烟使用率急剧上升，尤其在2017-2019年。尽管官方数据显示下降，但学校反馈的数据显示使用率远高于官方数据。青少年尝试尼古丁的原因包括营销、口味、压力应对和同侪影响。持续使用则与尼古丁成瘾、戒断症状和对认知提升的错误认知有关。电子烟对发育中的大脑、心脏和肺部有害，可能增加癌症风险。对青少年说'拒绝'无效，应帮助他们权衡利弊。大麻THC含量增加，与精神病风险增加有关。戒除尼古丁和电子烟成瘾非常困难，需要综合干预措施，包括尼古丁替代疗法、改变社交环境和应对戒断症状。青少年还面临危险驾驶、饮酒和危险性行为等风险。尼古丁口含片的使用率正在上升，但缺乏关于青少年使用情况的广泛研究数据。需要通过对话、教育和支持来帮助青少年做出健康的选择，并关注环境问题。

We discuss the rise in vaping addiction, the unique social pressures and social media influences faced by youth that make quitting challenging, and interventions to aid them in quitting or reducing use.

We also discuss the role of technology and social media. And, the use of alcohol, nicotine pouches, fentanyl, and other risky behaviors that adolescents face now.
