Assessing the Efficacy of Self-Driven Repetitive Artmaking Practice

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Chronic Pain, Opioid Use Disorder, Opioid Misuse, Opioid-Related Disorders

In brief

The primary purpose of this study is to assess the acceptability of self-directed art making for people with chronic pain and OUD/opioid misuse, or to state it another way, whether people with chronic pain and OUD/opioid misuse will realistically do this artistic practice on their own. A secondary question of this study is to explore whether doing this art practice can help minimize pain during the artistic process, lessen depression and anxiety, and improve feelings of social connection.
