When the body encounters serious physical or emotional trauma, it frequently struggles to process these events. Many times, the results are feelings of anger, fear, shock, guilt, depression, and severe anxiety. It overwhelms an individual's ability to cope. As these feelings expand, or the incidents continue, a First Responder's need for assistance multiplies.
