Jailhouse Survival Tips
Being deprived of freedom and under 24 hour surveillance while surrounded by potentially hostile strangers is no joke. Incarceration is a traumatic experience, period; doubly so if one is lacking any outside support. I do not believe any human being, remaining in a state of hyper-vigilance, is truly able to stay healthy and safe in a facility that reeks of human distress and misery. I do not believe corrections and medical staff are able to stay healthy, sane and safe in carceral settings, let alone the people detained within.
