  • Convicts during being kept in socializing institutions lose their freedom of mobility and accompanying sufferings such as the loss of opportunity to have sexual intercourse, of private rights, of getting goodness and help, of their secrecy from bad prejudice from society, and being suffered from infantilism. Convicts also have to do duties, to adapt themselves, to obey socializing institutions’ regulations and all regulations formed secretly which apply among occupants of socializing institutions beyond officers’ reach. In facing life which was hard and full of problems, part of convicts still had healthy mental conditions, who showed determination, survival, and even they helped their fellow convicts. In contrast, part of convicts suffered from unhealthy mental conditions, who showed desperation, apathy, and a condition of losing their life spirit, even there were some convicts who committed suicide in order to free themselves from their sufferings.
