From people who came through it
“If you're scared right now, I get it. I've been there. For me it was about three years ago. I remember job applications and the box like it was yesterday. I picked up the guitar again. Bit by bit it comes back. Keep going, even slowly.”
mum_frost · been through life after prison“This time last year I was exactly where you are. It was my kids barely know me and I couldn't see past it. I'm volunteering here now. It comes back so slowly you don't notice until one day you do.”
Juana from Lima F · been through life after prison“I was right where you are not that long ago, about a year. For me it was job applications and the box. Some weeks I don't think about it at all. Be gentle with yourself.”
roserain41 · been through life after prison“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.”
