Former Prisoners, Their Friends And Family Share 25 Things Nobody Tells You About Being Incarcerated That They Had To Learn On Their Own A friend of mine did some time. He had internet, PlayStation and a chef made breakfast and dinner every day. They had to make lunch themselves with access to a full complimentary kitchen. Knives, cutlery and so on was freely available.

They often want outside to shop groceries and some even went to work.

Basically, the only thing was to stay away from the sex offenders.

This was a medium security correctional facility in Norway.

Former Prisoners, Their Friends And Family Share 25 Things Nobody Tells You About Being Incarcerated That They Had To Learn On Their Own I don't think the outside world realizes how racial prison life is. Even if you go into it with the most non-racial outlook, you better change that immediately or your life is in danger. I did a stint in Chino (California) in 1999 and a black guy gave me a fish sandwich (I'm white by the way) and next thing I know I'm being dragged into the back and assaulted by three other white guys. You don't play cards, make deals that involve open food, pretty much anything when it comes to races outside of your own. I didn't grow up with a racial outlook so I didn't even see or notice these things but I had to quickly to adjust.

Former Prisoners, Their Friends And Family Share 25 Things Nobody Tells You About Being Incarcerated That They Had To Learn On Their Own For me, the loss of everything outside of my body was the biggest shock. You have nothing they don't want you to have when you first go in, so in a way it's like being born into a new world, but fully aware. It's a steep learning curve to be sure, but truthfully, it isn't always cutthroat with nobody to trust. Sure there are people to avoid, and if you have a decent celly, they'll point them out, somewhat like Shawshank.

I was in medium security for 6 months on credit card fraud, so I wasn't near any expected dangerous people anyway, but there were still the territorial guys you just were better off avoiding.

Other than that...a LOT of reading for me, learning some basic card tricks from my celly....stuff like that. Not at all a desirable place to be IMO.

Suicide smocks. They look like quilted blankets that have velcro on the sides. Most suicides in jail/prison happen within the first 72 hours of intake and are overwhelmingly done by hanging. Very easy to turn a bedsheet/jumper into a noose if you're creative and really want to die. Only takes about 15 minutes and most would do it during shift change when officers are inbetween rounds.

The crappiest officers would just kill time however they could. Our facility had blocks on MOST of the computers so you usually couldn't do much with them unless you were "lucky." Engaging with the inmates you'd meet some really interesting characters. As long as you were careful to not show favoritism/get too personal with them you could have reasonably fulfilling days when things were going well. I'll never forget some of the people I met in there.

The food sucks, not just sucks its absolutely not fit for human consumption. But you get hungry enough to eat it. They only serve 1200 calories a day in women's prison. At least mine. You'd better hope you have canteen coming. Better hope someone out there cares enough to send it to you. And hopefully they send you enough money, because women in prison have to use canteen money to buy shampoo, conditioner, hairbrushes, toothpaste, toothbrush, deodorant, pads and tampons, any type of Tylenol or stomach medication, cause if you get headache or stomach ache it'll take a week to get seen. You need to buy everything, and even though you're hungry enough to not be able to sleep, you still need tampons.

But one thing that no one tells you is that it's going to be so boring. So endlessly boring. Luckily, for women and state prison, there are a lot of programs and jobs available to fill your time, but there's always a wait. And everything in jail takes forever. And you have to be in for a certain amount of time before you qualify for a lot of things. They don't tell you how hard it is to be that bored. You have to make the most of it, and while I didn't enjoy my stays there, I always ended up being able to make the most of it and have a good time.

Out of the 8 fights while I was in there I lost 6 of them but even though I got beat up people ended up respecting me. And there is nothing worse than total isolation from everything.

Former Prisoners, Their Friends And Family Share 25 Things Nobody Tells You About Being Incarcerated That They Had To Learn On Their Own I would say the most surprising to me is that the inmates all do the same things, almost like they train each other to be inmates. For example: when they hold cigarettes and smoke, they all do it facing away from the officers station, they all sit on the beds in the same pattern, etc. If they see an officer coming onto the wing, they all yell "one time" to warn their friends to hide their s@#t. A more experienced officer can even spot inmates with "roles", which (in simple examples) you could have two inmates come up to distract you, while another one does something they're not supposed to. Or you could have one being irritating and trying to get on your nerves, so that another inmate will come up and offer to get him to stop. If you agree, the one stopping him will begin to act very friendly, and could start asking you to smuggle phones, or allow him and his buddies special privileges.

If someone you don't usually chat with comes up and starts acting especially friendly, they're covering something up. Often it will be tattooing, fighting, or f*cking. Those are the three I would always keep an eye out for. A smart officer will invite the inmate to continue conversing with him while he does a round so the guy won't run back to tell whoever he's covering for. If he doesn't follow, watch where he goes.

My cousin did 8 months inside a notorious prison in the UK. His cellmate as a white supremacist serving multiple life sentences for murder. This guy had Nazi insignia tattooed all over his massive body and a history of hospitalising his cell mates. My cousin lived in constant fear for 8 months (He got hit a few times and had his cheekbone broken). With his sentence done he was released. Fast forward 2 years and my other cousin (1st one's younger brother) gets 18 months for racially aggravated assault (a crime he didn't actually commit), and gets sent to the same prison and put in a cell with the Nazi hulk. Now, cousin 2 is a tiny, kind, sweet natured (if somewhat a little "different") young man. Putting him in a cell with that filth is akin to putting Bambi in the lions enclosure.

Interesting, thanks. What fascinates me is how society assumes this is even necessary. Sure, for violent guys who really are out of control - people who pose physical threats - but really?

I spent a night in jail. It was probably the worst experience of my life. I was jailed as a scare tactic, but honestly I had no idea what or who they wanted from me. Told me I better write some names in blood while I spent the night locked up. I was terrified. So, at one point I had an issue with opiates. I had legitimate prescriptions, but had an ex that was hell bent on destroying my life, & convinced his cop buddies that I was selling or buying drugs (he was a fire captain- WAS). I was taking more than I should have, but wasn't doing anything illegal. So, eventually everything was thrown out of court, but it was awful. For the most part, the women were nice, but a few were waaaay too comfortable being there, there were 3 ELDERLY ladies there and the guards were straight up assholes. I cried all night long.
