I served time from January 3rd, 2000 to January 3rd, 2001. It was followed by a year parole--group meetings on substance abuse, random piss cups (drug tests), and progress checks.

I'm 27 now.

Mt2tr,

How often would you and other inmates discuss the crimes you did to get into prison? Did you know of anyone you genuinely though of as innocent?

very rarely would it be discussed in specific terms, just general

I was in for 'drugs.' That's about all anyone ever shared. Opening up with each other is a mistake. I never even shared where I lived or family members, etc. Although, everyone realized I had a girlfriend because other inmates receiving visits witnessed mine with her and they'd give me compliments about her looks.



I know of no one who I genuinely thought was innocent.

how was it going from being a GHB addict to getting arrested? i know that GHB screws with your gaba levels (much like benzos) and so it couldn't have been fun knowing you were going to prison and your anxiety must have been sky-high.

also, did you ever even remotely consider either killing yourself or fleeing the country at any point in time? (prior to the actual imprisonment)

Very good read, very interesting.

What were you thinking about during the transition period between normal (college student) and prisoner immediately before you got locked up?

[/ QUOTE ]

holding out hope I wouldn't have to serve time mainly.


I pretty much had trouble sleeping.

I should've been planning post-prison life.

[ QUOTE ]

How many days transpired between knowing that you were going to be leaving your regular life and going to prison?


[/ QUOTE ]

busted in mid-march. Warrant was issued in late June. By September, it was apparent I was screwed. So, for over 3 months, I knew.

[ QUOTE ]

How did you try to prepare youself during this time?

[/ QUOTE ]

I worked out like crazy to get and appear stronger. I would immerse myself in my school work and my girlfriend.

What movie/TV show in your opinion is the most realistic in its portrayal of prison life. What is the most common misconception about prisons that people have.

MyTurn,

Thank you for sharing. Did the g/f who visited you continue doing so the whole way through, or was the break-up prior to your release?
