  The first few months of child raising is like deployment and a medical call as Firefighter/Police Officer wrapped up in one. Shit, piss and a communication barrier. <br>Dod qualified forklift, bus and warehouse tug certified.

  I’m glad you guys are exposing what first responders have to deal with! &nbsp;PTSD isn’t just combat related. And non military first responders don’t have veterans support. &nbsp;Thank you both for sharing, and exposing this.

  Honestly one of the best explainations of &quot;work mode&quot; I have heard! I also knew my time in public safety was up when that feeling went from completely focused to panic and anxiety when calls came in.

  Defense against the dark arts has a whole other connotation now that there’s a black Snape. <br>“Today were gonna learn how do defend against drive by’s kids.”

  In a former life as a deputy sheriff we called it &quot;disassociation&quot;. Like Rich said the brain tells the heart, I got this, no need for emotions.

  Thanks guys for talking about welfare checks and the stress on the responders. As Volunteer Firefighters we often got paged to do those when deputies were not available. Good stuff. Thanks for talking about it so other responders will talk it out, too.

  30 years as a Sheriffs Deputy in El Paso, TX. Thanks for sharing that story and the thoughts from the officers perspective. It&apos;s important for civilians to see our humanity.

  Years ago, I was working as an EMT &amp; was a Volunteer Firefighter/EMT for our local department. My very first call, I was getting ready to take my 6 year old to school &amp; tones go out...I hear my in-laws address. I tell my husband, &quot;call the school, let them know that he&apos;s going to be late or absent, because they just toned us out to your parent&apos;s house&quot; &amp; I take off. Since we only lived a mile away &amp; I knew exactly how to get there (didn&apos;t have to wait for Dispatch to provide directions) I was first on scene. My father-in-law came home from graveyard shift &amp; couldn&apos;t wake my Mother-in-law. I go in to assess &amp; it was immediately apparent that she had passed. That &quot;schoompf&quot; that hits is a very real thing. You go into &quot;I&apos;ve got to handle this&quot; mode &amp; deal with the emotions later. It sucked, but it also prepared me for anything else that could be thrown my way, I knew I could keep it together &amp; handle the scene.

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ey_DjLs32d0&amp;t=584">9:44</a> as a woman this was 💯 correct. The hormones afterwards are ridiculous. &nbsp;The fear of not doing everything perfectly and damaging our kid is terrifying. That &quot;what to expect when your expecting&quot; book is scare mongering.
