should I sue Intervention???

I already talked about this on my blog, but here it goes anyway:
a friend of mine related a tale about a friend who's tattoo artist work stopped making money after he appeared on the television show "Intervention", presumably because of something that was filmed in a negative light about him.
I also have had issues with even attempting to gain employment after my episode.
These people put our shit out on front street and profit from the madness that ensues. Should a trust fund be put out for "Intervention" people to ensure their well-being after the exploitation?
plus the whole thing about attributing a lot of negative side effects to one drug (DXM) that were actually caused by antihistamine abuse (corcidins)...it reeks man. They won't let me talk on their boards.

I'm going to take a wild guess that you signed all sorts of release forms and waivers before appearing on the show.
On what basis would you sue after fully agreeing to do the documentary?

By their own standards, how do you get a person who is "supposedly not of their own wits" to sign a contract?
By that, I mean if I needed an intervention, clearly I was not able to handle myself. How can I sign a contract if I'm in "outer space"???

lol don't be stupid. I argue that they exploited me for profit. Because I didn't go "along" with their recovery system doesn't mean I shouldn't share a piece of the pie. Are you anti-American?

What does America have to do with this? What did you think would happen? You failed to stop being a junkie, therefore you are a junkie. Why would anyone want to hire you?

you haven't continued to fail at life because of the show, you've continued to fail at life because you are still the same failure you've always been.

Doesn't matter. I could've cleaned up as a person and people will still see me as the guy that eats fries off the street. Who wants me to handle their food after seeing that?
