About this audiobook
Behind the Walls of Stress: Correctional Officer PTSD, Burnout, and Mental Health Survival Guide
Correctional officers live in a world few truly understand—long shifts, dangerous situations, and the constant pressure of working behind razor wire. The toll isn’t just physical; it’s emotional, mental, and deeply personal.
In this powerful and eye-opening guide, active correctional officer Carey Randall pulls back the curtain on the hidden struggles of life inside the prison system. Drawing from real experiences—both his own and those of fellow officers—he reveals the unspoken truth: the greatest battles correctional officers face are often the ones within themselves.
