What does immigration prison mean?

Immigration prison refers to the mental distress and emotional dilemma caused by inadaptability to the new environment, lack of sense of belonging and even discrimination after immigration. Immigrant prisons are mainly manifested in the psychological pressure and confusion caused by the great difference between immigrants and the original cultural and social environment. Only through adaptation and integration can this problem be alleviated.

Immigration prison not only affects individuals, but also may extend to family, society and country. Personal immigration prison may affect the growth of children, lead to family disharmony, and then affect the stability and development of society. In addition, immigrants are more likely to fall into the danger of crime, mental illness and other risks, which will bring social and national security risks.

In order to alleviate the plight of immigrant prisons, immigrants should adapt to the new environment as soon as possible, integrate into the local community, and establish new social circles and friendships. On the psychological level, immigrants can reduce their psychological pressure and confusion through communication and seeking professional psychological help. The government and local communities should also provide better support for immigrants, provide them with help in study, work and life, and reduce the occurrence of immigration prisons.
