Families of Prisoners Support Group
This community is dedicated to families that have been disrupted by prison. Having a loved one incarcerated or having been incarcerated comes with its own unique challenges that require support and understanding. Join the group to find others who know what you're going through, and to seek advice or share your experience.
Has anyone had a loved one go through this? Can you share anything? Does time served count?
Just realize when he is in there, life WILL be different, and hard. But you must know that making it go faster can work sometimes by forcing yourself to do things, whether it's projects at home, or going out with friends and seeing family. Even if you don't want to. Do it anyway.
And the thing is, he doesn't want you sad. He doesn't want you sitting home being miserable. In a way it helps him to have you lead a somewhat normal life. You then have things to talk to him about. He can visualize what you are doing. The guilty he feels would be less.
There is alot more to tell you, and I will later. I am sure you will get alot of advice from others too. We will help you get through this.
