A Call For Voices
*This is a call for voices. If you are a loved one of someone currently
using methadone, or a loved one of someone who has passed away because of methadone use I would love to hear from you. I am a documentary filmmaker working one a film that will expose the realities of methadone and the effects it has on our society. I am asking for stories to share that will
help reform regulation of this drug, and also take away the social stigma
of what it is to be on methadone. *
*
*
*My commitment to this film comes from a very real place in my life and the
life of my family. My father has been on methadone for over 35 years. My
brother for five. My family battles regularly with the health issues
methadone creates for both my father and brother, as well as the social
stigma's that come along with someone on this medication. *
*
*
*I am driven to explore all angles of the methadone culture. I want to hear
from the loved ones who have lost someone to methadone deaths, the loved
ones who are losing someone to methadone life, I want to hear from the
methadone users, and I want all the same from the other side. I plan to
reach out and explore what the people at the clinics believe, I want to
hear from the pharmaceutical companies and the government run committees that "regulate" this drug. *
*
*
*Please help me bring a strong voice out to the world that tells the full
story of methadone. You can contact me directly by emailing
voiceweneed@gmail.com. Tell me about yourself, what drew you to reach out
and where you are from. I look forward to hearing from you.*

*All the best!*
