This episode Kristin is a truth-bringer as she shares her knowledge on the addictiveness of nicotine. She’s getting into the different forms of consumption and its many effects, reasons why nicotine has such a hold on ADHDers in particular, sharing harm reduction recommendations as your friendly neighborhood vascular P.A., and celebrating the many wonderful changes that can come about when you quit.
