Not sure where you got your facts from but they are not totally true. Some prison sentences stick with people the rest if their lives. Many jobs that require security clearences even say don't apply if you have ever had a criminal conviction on your record or have even been arrested.
I dealt with depression from 1994 until just a few years ago with more suicide attempts than I can even remember.....I went to wonderful intense therapy after I left where I was living & where my depression was so bad. I have pretty much healed from all the bad depression I experienced from 1994 until 2007 & lesser from 2007-2010. I have no labels that have stuck from that experience. Maybe if my behaviors were the same as they were then there may be a label but it would be appropriate.
Maybe changing environment & starting life over with a fresh start is a good thing if yiu don't drag the past along with you.
Just saying your situation is not always the case though it may be in many cases.
