NCT ID NCT07413991

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study explores whether an online expressive writing workshop can boost mental wellness in young adults (ages 18-39) with blood cancer. One hundred participants will either start the workshop right away or wait four weeks. Everyone takes surveys about their mood and stress over 12 weeks. The goal is to see if writing about emotions can make a real difference.
