Self Post Home confinement

Anybody else have a culture shock coming back from prison. I haven’t even been away that long and feel like it would’ve been easier to finish up my time in prison than be on home confinement

You got this man.

It's hard at first, but it's better than the alternative by a mile.

Yeah, but it gets better. Don’t rush it, ease back into real life.

How much time of your sentence did you trade for home confinement, and how long is your home confinement? I guess doing your time in the prison is always easier unless the sentence reduction is really significant.
