Firefighter Opens Up About Overwhelming Stress As A Firefighter | Megyn Kelly TODAY
Capt. Jacques Roy. So brave, brother. God Bless you. Be well. Thank you for having so much courage and bravery to speak out. You are a HERO to your coworkers and community!!!
All too often we think that asking for help is a sign of weakness cuz that's what we're taught. I have fallen for that lie so many times. Yet the opposite is true. It takes such courage to admit you need help and finding out your not alone is so freeing. It really sucks that so much stigma is attached to needing/wanting to reach out. Jacques Roy thank you for speaking out and being vulnerable it showed tremendous strength. #not alone
This was posted over three years ago and doesn't even have 12k views. People say they care about us, but they really don't. Everyone likes to say they appreciate first responders, until it's time to pay us. That's when you get all the "you know what you signed up for" nonsense. Take care of yourself, and don't let your organization/municipality take advantage of you.
I still remember the Worcester cold storage. Was working as a medic on my home towns Ems rig. Ugh finally I couldn’t keep going like you ! Took me many years to admit it ! God bless brother !
It takes more strength to ask for help! God Bless You All
firefighters should be getting paid the same as doctors tbh
God bless all Firefighters worldwide! Thank you for saving our lives in the line of danger. God bless our first responders.
Capt. Jacques, nice job bringing awareness to the fight!
My dept. 185 members one of the suicides that stick out, a member came down with lung cancer. He hung himself in the basement because he couldn't do the job any more.
When you have the stress of fixing things ! It eats at you. in my spot as a medic too get all the sick kids & adults. ! Only we can fix it ! Starts from the top ! God bless my brothers & sisters 🇺🇸
Thank you for this!!
I remember that incident ! I also am you @ this time in my 33 yr career ! Waited until I broke ! But I won’t quit ! I’ll make it !
Job is physically and mentally stressful...and not for everyone...same as military
It sounds like it was the proverbial drop of water that overspilled the glass.
So, we're telling this story about first responders and stress in our award winning film, PTSD911. I would love to talk with you about this. We're screening the film around the country.
ÙD o u see prolongued image if u closed eye!
Still difficult to speak up, can't afford to, I have a family to provide for. People say they appreciate us, but that's as far as it goes. No one actually cares.
Blinking Eh! Gods saved u sir!
how many soldiers do you think committed suicide who discovered the concentration camps interesting statistics my parents were in the camps they never had ptsd my grandma said be a man allready
Wow good for you... everyone has mental scars whether they admit it or not. And your grandma’s statement is extremely ignorant.
I'm saddened to hear your grandmother didn't have the insight, education and awareness to support you. I'm a combat veteran and suffer severe PTSD, tried to commit suicide 18 years ago. It's absolutely horrific every day!!!
Let's God ,Jesus will be with you and give you strength to go forward.i want ones day too be like you firefighter🧑🚒.Sorry people for my badly English lenguage...
