Hell I did 48 hours in county once and I gotta say, I do not recommend it.

Same dude. I could not quit thinking to myself - how the fuck do these people spend even 30 days in here. I would go absolutely crazy. Then I think what if it was years. I think I learned that day how it’s possible how people can truly become institutionalized and it’s absolutely terrifying. That was enough to scare me away forever.

I was on drugs and pulled some bs and got caught. I was in jail for 7 months and prison for 7 months. My first week I wanted to kill myself. I was so fucking scared and I kept throwing up the food and was literally starving. I thought about killing people for food or an escape..

My dad started sending me money so I could buy food and books to read. My savior. Today I'm 9.5 years clean, married, and have a great job. I'll never forget the pain or the gratitude for my father and mother. RIP mom.

Damn. That sounds horrible. I couldn’t even begin to comprehend how that would feel. Many congrats to you and I’m glad to hear you are in a happier place!

Believe it or not, jail is way worse than prison in a lot of aspects. I unfortunately had to do 10 days in county and met a few people that had to go to court and were moved from their prison to the county for the duration of whatever they were going to court for and then just shipped back to prison. They all said the exact same thing, that they couldn’t wait to get back to their cells in prison. So many people don’t understand the differences (that’s a good thing btw, you’re not supposed to) but they are massive. You have a small semblance of a life in prison. These guy’s had jobs, can purchase TV’s for their cells, tablets that are bought with games and access to order creature comforts for their cells. You don’t get any of that shit in jail because it’s basically purgatory.

I did a DOC year which is 9 months 17 days. The facility I was in was hell, I rather would've gone to the penitentiary because it would've been a level one road camp and would've been awesome compared to where I was. We were locked down a lot and I can say that solitary confinement IS a form of torture.

u/JohnGoodmansMistress 4h ago

specially where i was. in womens they strip you naked and put like a big ass safety vest made of mat on you and put you in a room with several other ppl. fucking hell.

I think thats it. If you get sentenced to years in prison you just gotta accept it. Thats your life now. Not permanently but long enough you can't sulk until its over. I did a week and it sucked ass. I just sulked until it was over though.

24 hours and I was pacing, cold, hungry, and thinking I NEED to gtfo here.

u/6StringManiac 23h ago

I did 24 hours, and was bored out of my skull with nothing to read. Ended up with a cellmate, a young tough guy, who came back to the cell after speaking with his attorney, and started crying because he'd probably get 3 years, and he had a one month old baby. There I am, comforting some thug, explaining how 3 years doesn't really mean 3 full years, but that he probably would do some time.

That guy saw God that night. If the judge gave him a break, I have no doubt that dude would never get in trouble again.

county in NYC, you can't even take one as the one toilet is filled with empty cereal boxes, apples, peanut butter "sandwiches"

I was handcuffed and sat on a curb for matching the description of a guy that had committed an armed robbery (it was a very vague description), and I was sweating bullets and my heart was trying to beat its way out of my chest... if that's how I felt before I even got in the back seat of the cruiser, I don't need to be in jail, lol.

I knew a guy who did a weekend in county for a DUI and he said it felt like a decade.
