Answer

Hello. You ought to be talking privately with an attorney so that she/he can advise you as to your personal needs and issues. The sooner you get private help, the better. Each case is unique. It is a positive that this is 'your first' time in trouble, since a main goal of the criminal justice system is to try to help people to turn away from patterns of wrongful conduct (to 'rehabilitate' people, to 'restore' people to the community and to society).
