Police officers experience a series of unique factors that contribute to experiencing chronic levels of high stress punctuated at regular intervals by critical incidents that induce traumatic stress responses. If this stress is not appropriately managed symptoms of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), reactive personality change and substance abuse, and secondary life problems including divorce and stress-related illness can develop. Here is an excellent website for understanding the problem of Police Stress and working for solutions within your community.
