Behind the Walls of Stress
Correctional Officer PTSD, Burnout, and Mental Health Survival Guide How to Recognize, Confront, and Overcome the Hidden Toll of Life Inside the WireBy Carey Randall
Length1h 34m
About this audiobook
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.
