Feed Your Head / Introduction and Looking for Resources

Hi. I am reading A Life Gone Awry, and I can relate to the jailhouse mentality in that place. I was in a teen behavioral hospital type place in the '80's and then transferred to long-term in a Catholic boarding school for wayward girls. It wasn't violent, but we had intercoms in our rooms, and our mail was intercepted and censored. We were routinely humiliated, and I was banned from reading any books. We went outside for an hour a day to walk around a courtyard that was about a quarter of an acre, if I remember right. We left the property once a month, or so.
I have a lot of stories and a lot of damage, but I am interested in reading the stories of other people. What are some good blogs, books, or articles? Is there a story thread somewhere on here?
Anyway, this website is pretty inclusive, and I'm having a hard time navigating it. Please direct me to a more appropriate forum if this is the wrong place for my post.
