About this research study:
Researchers are trying to further their understanding of health and wellness behaviors in young adults who experience chronic pain and use cannabis.
Pain relief is known to be an important motivation for cannabis use. This study is designed to learn more about the daily experiences of young adult marijuana users with chronic pain.
We hope to learn more about how marijuana use influences daily health and wellness behaviors and experiences, including sleep, pain, and your mood. In the future, this knowledge can be translated into innovative and effective interventions for children and adolescents with pain and their families.
