I Have Been In Prison

I was 18 when I went to prison for the first time. Given nine months for Assault with intent to resist arrest and shop lifting. Was released on probation after five months but was back inside within four weeks having broken the terms of my probation. Spent my 21st birthday behind bars for assault and robbery with an 18month sentence. Third and final time when I was 24, I was in for three months for my old favorite crime of shoplifting.

That was like 12+ years ago. Sounds like you figured out what you were doing wrong and adjusted.

After just watching a few prison movies, I'm inclined to think of "prison" as having less to do with rehabilitation and more to do with further victimizing the misfortunes.
