From people who came through it
“For whoever is where I was: I was right where you are two years ago. Back then it was visits on Saturdays. Yesterday I booked a holiday. Bit by bit it comes back. Sending love.”
sophia_sun · been through a loved one in prison“Hi, you. I was where you are nearly four years ago. The worst part was visits on Saturdays. Last month I had people round for dinner. Things come back, slower than you'd like but they do.”
Brave Basil · been through a loved one in prison“About three years ago, that was me. It was phone calls that cut off and I couldn't see past it. I went on vacation in the summer and actually relaxed. It's slow, but it does come back. Keep going, even slowly.”
Marisol H. · been through a loved one in prison“In 2023, that was me. The kids think he is working away, and I couldn't see past it. Some weeks I don't think about it at all. Bit by bit it comes back.”
