  4. First Responders and Addiction: The Silent Struggle | Mike Marotta of Warriors Heart

It's estimated that 30% of first responders (police, fire, EMS,
etc) suffer from behavioral health injuries like PTSD and
depression; significantly higher than the general population.
Many first responders report struggling with substance use, often
turning to alcohol or drugs to cope with the high-stress demands
of their jobs. These alarming statistics reveal a deeper crisis
within the first responder community, where the pressure to
remain strong often prevents seeking help.


In this episode, we sit down with Mike Marotta of Warriors Heart
to discuss why mental health and substance use issues are so
prevalent among first responders, the cultural barriers to
getting support, and the critical need for change.
