Need help with codeine documentary

oonaghmc

Hi, My name is Oonagh Mc Fall. Im 22 years old and living in Galway city. I am in my final year of studies in GMIT's BA in Film and Television. I hope to work in post sound after this. I love documentaries, I think they are the most interesting way of learning something new, because of this I hope to continue producing documentaries in my spare time. I have been given the oppurtunity to shoot a documentary of my choice as my final project for the course.
I have chosen Codeine addiction in Ireland because my friend has been suffering with a neurofen plus addiction for four years. From research I have discovered that hundreds of people are addicted but never want to come forward while hundreds more are unaware that its possible to become addicted to anything you can buy over the counter and they have never heard of codeine or what it is. Through my documentary I hope to raise awareness of this problem, by telling peoples stories and experiences I hope it could be an eye opener to others in the future. I also have professionals involved to outline the risks and discuss how quickly a dependency can occur. If you/someone you know has been affected by this I would love to hear your story. Or anyone with any feedback or advice, all help will be much appreciated.
Thanks, Oonagh
