Trauma is Trauma. Having been exposed to trauma isn’t a competition. Comparing your trauma to another’s is not helpful nor is it healthy. By comparing your struggle to someone else’s, you can minimize the reality of what you are going through and the feelings that you’ve assigned to it. It might stop you seeking help & could chip away at your self-worth. We all experience stress and trauma differently because each and every single one of us is unique.

If anyone in is
struggling please
If you know someone out there in ‘buddy nation’ who may be struggling please as they may not be able to ask for help.

There are those who are scared sometimes to intervene during a crisis, from fear of not knowing exactly what to do. Here’s a couple of to consider. 1) Ask a simple yet powerful question. Do not beat around the bush. Ask “Are you thinking about killing yourself?” 2) Keep them safe. Remove any lethal means/weapons from the home. This is a good time to ask if they have a plan. 3) Simply be there. Listen with empathy. There’s research that shows, talking about su***de may reduce the thoughts. 4) Get them connected to a higher level of care. Su***de Hotlines. Text Hotlines. Emergency Rooms. A mental health professional. Etc. 5). This is an extremely important one. Maybe the most important. FOLLOW UP. Stay in touch. Conduct ™️ to ensure they are working their ‘recovery journey’. If you know someone who may be struggling, please as they may not be able to ask for help. If you are struggling please . BuddyCheck™️ AllIn

We have all heard of the below statement. For those of us in who are issued a department vehicle & not responsible for the maintenance, we take this phrase like the gospel. We’ll jump curbs, hard breaking, fast acceleration, darting across lanes and medians, and just all around beating it to s**t.
Heck, I’m not paying for the repairs we tell ourselves. They’ll just issue me another one, possibly a newer year model.
As , all to often, ’driving ourselves and each other like we stole it’. Not prioritizing exercise, proper diet, good sleep hygiene and SelfCare. We run and gun as if when we ‘breakdown’ we will just receive an upgrade to a newer model. But let’s be honest, that doesn’t happen. And in a 20, 25, 30 year career… we may be breaking down extremely often if we have poor or no resilience strategies.
Please slow down a bit and take care of your vehicle. You only get the one.

Both can be subtle but yet destructive and deadly like a terminal disease. I’d venture to say that fear & pride are responsible for more , and taking their own lives than we have lost in the line of duty.
I myself have struggled with both of these in the past, and more recently.
If you know someone who may be struggling please as they may not be able to ask for help. If you are struggling please !
