I'd get out maybe for a week here and then get into it with somebody or get attacked or that kind of stuff and then go back.

And there was one moment where I kind of felt like my mind was almost teetering and it scared me.

In the hole, you don't really, you can't talk to nobody because you get in trouble, and you can't sign with nobody because you get in trouble.

So you're basically, it's just you in a room, and nothing else really exists.

Every little noise would kind of send me into kind of an anxiety attack.

And then nightmares came, racing thoughts, all the things that are classic, you know, basically you're going insane.

They come actually to check on you.

They have these people that come check on you.

They don't really check on you.

They come and ask you.

They're a psychiatrist.

They come and ask you, are you doing all right?

You can be on the edge of insanity.

You can be going crazy.

You're going to tell them, I'm fine.

Because if you tell them, I'm going crazy, or something's happening to me, or I'm starting to have these weird thoughts, everybody on the tier is going to see that.

And they're going to label you as weak.

It's just a weird kind of prison thing.

I don't know what it is.

And so everybody just suffers in their own way.
