💙 The Return of “Huffing”: Why We’re Worried — and What We Can Do Together

You may remember “huffing” from grainy 1990s health videos. But it’s back — now called “whippits” — and it’s harming teens across the country.

Nitrous oxide and other inhalants are often seen as “safe” because they’re legal and easy to access. But legal does NOT mean safe. These substances can deprive the brain of oxygen, causing:

🧠 Long-term brain and nervous system damage
⚠️ Memory and cognitive impairment
💔 Sudden cardiac arrest

At BIAAZ, we believe teens deserve accurate information — not viral myths.

Meet Jamie Suppanz 💙

Jamie is a speech-language pathologist who knew early on that she wanted to work in healthcare — and once she discovered speech pathology, she “fell in love with it.”

Today, she works in vocational rehabilitation, helping individuals with brain injuries regain communication skills, rebuild confidence, and return to meaningful employment. She’s part of an interdisciplinary team that collaborates daily to support each client’s goals — and she says it’s the most fulfilling work she’s ever done.

“It’s super exciting when someone gets a job and they keep it.”

We’re honored to have professionals like Jamie in the Brain Injury Association of Arizona’s referral network.
