SriPonya, Bend Film, SkyLine Recovery, and Broken Top Recovery partner on screening of Medicating Normal; and workshop with Mental Health Advocate Will Hall featuring art by Native Artist, Speakthunder Berry
The film MEDICATING NORMAL, follows five high-functioning people whose doctors prescribed pills to help with common problems like stress, insomnia, anxiety, and grief as they seek to stop taking these drugs. They are faced with a gap in critical recovery care and information that impacts their lives in devastating ways; yet there is still hope.
After the film, Will Hall will facilitate a workshop entitled “Harm Reduction: A Guide to Coming Off Psychiatric Medication” including how to run and hold community groups supporting this population.
