Abstract

This study aimed to explore the association between the degree of PTSD symptomatology and severity of insomnia symptoms in a clinical sample of women receiving buprenorphine for OUD. PTSD symptomatology was assessed via the PCL-5, and insomnia symptoms were determined via the Insomnia Severity Index. Analyses indicated that more participants experiencing clinically significant PTSD symptomatology also reported insomnia symptoms than their counterparts. Future work should investigate how holistic care (e.g., trauma-informed approaches) that addresses the overlap between trauma and sleep disturbance could inform gender-specific OUD treatment strategies in the overdose crisis.
