Their physical health will also suffer because they don't always have access to proper health care ]]> 2019-04-28 22:38:26 UTC https://padlet.com/erussell109/3xm3jdkg3bir/wish/354828004 https://padlet.com/erussell109/3xm3jdkg3bir/wish/543432772 Prison affects the mental and physical health of prisoners because they endure a lot of trauma this may be due to their past experiences before prison or it may be because of what they have witnessed in prison. However, loneliness is one of the significant challenges people face because they have to complete their prison term by being away from their loved ones. ]]> 2020-05-01 03:49:44 UTC https://padlet.com/erussell109/3xm3jdkg3bir/wish/543432772 https://padlet.com/erussell109/3xm3jdkg3bir/wish/556414272 Imprisonment undoubtedly affects the physical and mental health of inmates.

Therefore it comes at no surprise that  those who expeirnce prison may suffer from mental health problems-- either deteriorating already present issues or triggering the onset of something. This not only applies to people who are in prison remand or sentenced but also extend to family/friends and those who work within the prison system.

Being separated from one's family and their support network can mean that they are unable to properly cope with their emotions. Negative emotions can arise in prison such as guilt, loneliness, regret, anger etc. Prisons can also have the effect of dehumanising individuals which can be especially bad for their mental health. 
Physical health can be impacted as constant stress and negative emotions can cause exhaustion in the body. Prisons may also not be getting as much exercise as they would if they were not in prison. ]]> 2021-04-23 04:07:43 UTC https://padlet.com/erussell109/3xm3jdkg3bir/wish/1450394876 https://padlet.com/erussell109/3xm3jdkg3bir/wish/1458179256 Imprisonment is a very isolating experience, some spend a short period of time there whilst others spend a majority of their lives. It stops a person from personal growth and confines them to four walls that are never changing, alway seeing the same faces and the same walls. Mentally you would feel caged and physically they would feel as if you're stuck in one place forever.]]> 2021-04-26 06:58:49 UTC https://padlet.com/erussell109/3xm3jdkg3bir/wish/1458179256 https://padlet.com/erussell109/3xm3jdkg3bir/wish/1483627908 Imprisonment can affect a persons mental health in many ways. They are away from their family and friends meaning that they may miss out on being able to have a shoulder to lean on. Society is taught to criminalise anyone that is put in prison so the people that are imprisoned may feel like that is just who they are now. Physically prisoners may be abused by other cellmates as well as on top of mental abuse they not be able to eat causing them to lose weight.]]> 2021-05-03 02:43:58 UTC https://padlet.com/erussell109/3xm3jdkg3bir/wish/1483627908 https://padlet.com/erussell109/3xm3jdkg3bir/wish/1602905555 Imprisonment can be detrimental to a persons mental health especially when prisons lack the correct facilities to support those with mental health issues and physical issues ]]> 2021-06-13 00:35:23 UTC https://padlet.com/erussell109/3xm3jdkg3bir/wish/1602905555 https://padlet.com/erussell109/3xm3jdkg3bir/wish/2158111405 Imprisonment has detrimental affects to an individuals mental and physical health. Physically, the prisoner may go through abuse caused by other prisoners such as through fights or bullying, or could physically deteriorate due to poor mental health.

They lose the ability to think for themselves and this impacts facets of their mental health in other parts of their lives.

As for physical health, the spaces that prisoners are given for exercise/recreation aren't really enough to keep in top physical health. This especially applies to offenders in maximum security facilities.]]> 2022-04-27 09:58:23 UTC https://padlet.com/erussell109/3xm3jdkg3bir/wish/2160104600
