Filmmaker Statement

Every evening I swallow my prescription of pills. These evenings feels endless--innate. It feels like I'll never be strong enough to live without them. I don't know when I'll stop taking them if ever. Living with a mental illness is my reality. I really just want to be normal most of the time. I wish I didn't have to take my pills to function--but I do. "Pills! Pills! Pills!" is about not fitting in. It's also about the pressure I feel to use medication to fit in. I wonder a lot about whether or not my medication is helping me or, rather, it's helping me fit into society. I don't know. Does anyone?
