Casting Menstruators for a Social Experiment

Vitamin Enriched, a real people casting company, is searching in the NY Tri-state area for people who have a rough period or PMS. We’re looking for real stories of people who are tired of apologizing for having their period and more importantly tired of making up excuses for missing social events and work. We are looking for people who are ready to own, and normalize having a period, and needing to cancel because of their period. We would love to hear from people who want to share their period story and suggest someone in their lives who they would be willing to cancel plans on (in person, on the phone, through text, via zoom), or even call out period sick. (ex: family, friends, bosses, colleagues, teammates, teachers, professors)  If this sounds like you we’d love to hear from you!
