Anyone ever been to jail or prison?

I was in jail once in 2015. It really sucked but fortunately I was able to sleep almost all the time away and no charges were pressed and I just ended up in the psych ward for the first time because people thought I was mentally ill.

I was sentenced to 12 months and served one month and was let out on appeal.

It was a youth offenders prison as I was only 16, and they moved me after a few days to a mental health ward in London.

I was not well at the time, and I did a lot of drugs which was the main reason why I got into trouble.

Lucky you got out early.

It was due to doctors saying I was too ill to be there and the magistrate judge was too harsh and the crown court judge overturned the sentence like it never happened.

I was in jail for 14 hours on suicide watch (supposedly) to sober up after a DUI. That’s it.

((Suicide watch in jail is a joke, no one checked on me at all))

That sucks.

I haven’t went to prison, but Juvi sooo I don’t know if that counts. I was 14.

I spent a day in jail once.

Not the classiest thing I’ve ever done,

But it happened.

Never in jail but 5 stints on a medical ward for a week each. Definitely felt inprisoned

I’ve always hated being locked up in hospitals but it was always way better than jail.

That’s me exactly. I’ve spent about five months in jail on three charges. I usually went straight from jail to the mental hospital.

I spent some days in juvenile hall. I sealed my record. As an adult I’ve spent some time in the holding tank in jail for small stuff like smoking pot in public. They let me go and I wasn’t charged. I was there overnight. It happened twice. Neither one was a pleasant experience obviously. In Juvenile Hall I was held in solitary confinement. That really sucked. I read a lot of books after they gave me access to the library.
