Prison got me into a library and reading books, which I hadn’t done since school. I found a book called ‘Calm Down’ by Dr Paul Hauck. This book turned my life around, when I got out I went back into education and went to University to study psychology, now in a middle management position. Prison was one of the best things that ever happened to me, sad but true.

Only cowards would bully other prisoners, insecure men who can't hold their own, the most dangerous men keep their head down and do their time
