Life after prison support in Chile 🇨🇱

“I was in the same place nearly four years ago. For me it was a halfway house. Today I went for a walk and didn't cry once. Things come back, slower than you'd like but they do. Praying for you.”

“For anyone new to this: I've been there. For me it was not that long ago, about a year. Released in January after 6 years. That was my life. I laugh properly again. Be gentle with yourself.”

“Dear stranger, a year and a half ago I was exactly where you are. The worst part was my kids barely know me. Last weekend I went to a friend's birthday and stayed till the end. It comes back so slowly you don't notice until one day you do. Hang on.”

“Para el que empieza: no te voy a decir que es fácil. La calle es dura, la gente desconfía. Pero hay que buscarle. Yo encontré trabajo con mi hermano, y un taller de redes. No es lo mismo, pero es algo. Habla con alguien, no te guardes todo. Y busca una cosa pequeña que te guste, como mis rosas. Eso te sostiene.”
