Chan School of Public Health, revealing how exposure to toxic wildfire smoke may be silently fueling anxiety, depression, psychosis, and substance use disorders."Wildfire smoke isn’t just a respiratory issue — it affects mental health too."– Dr. Kari Nadeau, lead researcherThis isn’t just about smoke in the air — it’s about the emotional toll it takes and the invisible damage it leaves behind.
