Today we're talking to Chris Moore, a Virginia-based firefighter whose father was a police officer. Chris is a great interview because he's got a lifetime of experience wrestling with the ups and downs of first responder behavioral health, both firsthand and as a child of a cop. Chris brings a radical level of transparency to this conversation and I want you to especially notice the three unhealthy coping mechanisms he says he turned to through most of his career.
