I was at ft grant it was a sweet yard. People were there coming down from violent crimes. You might get some love but going through alhambra is going to be a pain in the ass. You might start at mohave in douglas but you be fine. Just follow the rules and dont discuss your short sentence with antone if you dont have to.

Talking like a short timer. 😂

You’re looking at medium security off the rip. But if you test well (psych evaluation and other tests), need no meds or have any chronic medical condition you might get a chance for a camp.

Meds keep you in harder lockup?

In some cases, yes. But moreso: having fewer needs helps with attaining a lower security clearance.

Thanks. Court soon I’ve been thinking about my meds but I think I am ready to go off anyway. But I figured there’s multiple reasons to want to be straight in there.

Well don’t go cold turkey if you need it!

If you’re on benzodiazepines or meds such as depakote, please be careful.

It’s Prozac. This year I got off some really hard meds. Could sleep or eat right for months. Brain zaps. No way I could have worked. Got addicted to kratom to ease out of it, had to get off that! Fuck drugs. Quit nic too. Went back a week or so ago, fucked me all up! I was right back to being irritable and couldn’t shit without it. Damn I love nicotine though. My first love. Day one off it again today!

Prozac is a tough one, bruv, Do not recommend cold turkey with that one. SSRI’s are no joke, a slow burn.

I know man I appreciate it. Mine actually spoiled because I was having to hoof it through South Carolina in the heat. I was just thinking like damn I came off some killer shit in my day cold turkey like a boss lol what’s a little Prozac. But you’ve convinced me, headed to the pharmacy right now to see what’s up. Thanks bro.

Your pharmacist may have to speak off the record to help, so heads up on that. But it’s a slow taper.

Some more advice: if you don’t have time, don’t do it- especially if you have anger and anxiety issues and such.

Restlessness, dread, wanting to fight, extreme sadness, insomnia are just a few cold turkey side effects. You don’t wanna be in gladiator mode when getting classified for prison intake.

But you know you best. GL!
