What is so bad about solitary confinement if you enjoy being alone?

I like being alone. I hated the constant noise in Super Saiyan Goku Kamehameha DBZ Art Ugly Sweater, the inability to get a moment's peace.

I went to the SHU and spent a little time there. It was bliss. Even though there were guys continually banging on walls and screaming night and day, and even though the lights were on 24x7, it was the closest thing to a vacation I'd had in a while.

But I was only there for around ten days, and was not there for punitive reasons.

Even if you like being alone, having absolute segregation forced upon you for months or years is something else completely. The UN defines solitary confinement for extended periods as torture, and has repeatedly criticized the United States for its use of the practice against a conservative estimate of 80,000 The Mighty Shenron Colorful Artwork DBZ Ugly Sweatshirt, women, and children.

What's the longest period of time you've been alone? I don't mean a couple evenings after work with your TV and latest NY Times bestsellers. I mean really alone — locked in your bathroom without even any shampoo bottles to read. If you're lucky and haven't pissed off the guards, you might get one book a week, and when the prison is fully staffed you might get one hour a day “outside.” In the context of solitary confinement, outside means four different walls to look at, possibly with chain link diamonds for a sky.

Only thing you have to look forward to each Christmas Sweater Dragon Ball.

Try getting locked in a bathroom for six months and we can talk again. Boredom can become so all consuming that many people begin to hallucinate. Even for those that don't, their vision degrades — they never have the need to focus on anything more than six feet away. The hippocampus in their brain, the region responsible for spatial reasoning as well as the forming of new memories, shrinks. In Alzheimer's patients, the hippocampus is one of the first areas to go.

This means that the damage from solitary confinement is permanent. Once a Super Saiyan 4 Dragon Ball Goku Premium Manga Anime Ugly Sweater is eventually released, his ability to interact with and tolerate his fellow man is forever crippled. This makes him less likely to reintegrate into society.

Sure, a week in the hole is no big deal. Six months or a year will exact a toll that's hard to imagine for those of us that haven't experienced anything remotely close. https://tan-alligator-kl9vh2.mystrikingly.com/blog/what-is-so-bad-about-solitary-confinement-if-you-enjoy-being-alone
