Great jib Vice. I think you illustrated mental health as it is important and that we need to take care of it. Working in this field and Psychiatry and can say that a majority of the individuals that I see come through have some sort of mental illness. Putting the mentally ill in prisons isn't right but to a certain degree, they don't know the DSM or how to make a proper diagnosis. That's why you have us so we can help you with that. Re-entry programs are crucial to patients that suffer from severe mental illnesses. Keep up the great work! I will always advocate for people that have mental illness regardless of the nature of their charges. There are usually underlying issues going on in there.

Well remember, he was incarcerated for breaking the law (I don't know what he initially was charged for but regardless he was found guilty and given over 12 years). While incarcerated with the BOP, he assaulted multiple correctional officers, which shows he is dangerous and requires higher security measures. While at ADX, he did not show any signs that he should be brought back down to a lower custody level which is proven by the fact that he was there for eleven years, or maybe not but this makes more sense. My point is that until there is a real plan that can effectively manage these problems that many convicts have, they should not be on the street. As evidenced by sexually assaulting someone within 5 days of release.

I was born in Denver. Grew up just outside (Aurora). I was diagnosed with Anxiety and PTSD (non-military related) in case anyone was curious. So I was in counseling for 4 1/2 years, I would go for 1 hour once a week, but at times I felt I needed it to be more often (at least twice a week for an hour) would've been a great help and they wouldn't give that to me. Even though I kept saying I needed the help I was denied even though I wouldn't mind paying for the extra session. That's why we all just gotta try to take care of ourselves and be cool with others. The system is broken for sure but what we really need to do is focus on healing ourselves if we need to. Happy New Year everyone.
