Can vapers help combat the epidemic of new mental health issue, nebulaphobia?

[Cookie60]

Nebulaphobia is a chronic fear of clouds or fog. I think that applies to vaping. How does one gently suggest that the nebulaphobes one encounters seek professional help? It seems rather epidemic these days and I think we all need to try to help these poor unfortunate people. Most often it seems that the vaper they so fear makes them think they are dealing with something dangerous. Perhaps those in the medical profession can provide the caring attention these poor souls need to get on with their lives in a state of better mental health.

One approved treatment for phobia is systematic desensitization.
First we set them in a room with a picture of, say, PBusardo, blowing one of his less alarming plumes. Soft music, lovely sandwiches, kitten videos.
Once they're comfortable with that, a Provari casually set on the coffee table, then a passerby vaping as she strolls by the window. More kittens.
Eventually, VapeMeet. A boatload of kittens. You get the idea.

Any treatment involving electric shock, large mallets or full restraint is inappropriate. Take a walk and join CASAA.

Damn, electric shocks and mallets sounded good.

I know.
In a pinch, maybe.
