MILITARY | LAW ENFORCEMENT | INTELLIGENCE | VETERANS | FIRS There is a widespread trend among policemen not to ask for help and show up depressive features and other forms of psychological distress (for example PTSD symptoms) is considered a negative issue because they are afraid of being judged unfit to perform their job. Psychologists working side by side the police should be seen as predominantly helpers not as judges. The availability of a weapon makes the suicide (actingout) relatively easier, but on the above mentioned element there are no effective prevention strategies since weapons are essential work tools so limiting the access to hold them appears almost impossible unless a pre-suicidal syndrome has already occurred. Many police officers erronously believe that only a specialist (medical-doctor or psychologist) can be helpful in case one of their coworkers is ill or use likely to commit suicide. This is definitively wrong.In the prevention of the suicidal phenomenon among the police forces, along with the intervention of specialists the support activity of colleagues, because of the nature of the relationships of confidence and intimacy established in the police dept. and who have the opportunity to identify any situation of psychological distress, may give valuable help. Often the ones who have the opportunity to catch possible messages of help coming from depressed subjects that could commit suicide are not specialists (doctors and psychologists), they are just co-workers who live side by side to them and therefore have the opportunity to intervene, report the issue and provide initial support. The knowledge among all the police operators (through targeted training courses) of some basic elements of suicidology is therefore essential to identify subjects at risk within the workplace and try to take immediate preventive actions. For example, officers can identify in advance situations of alcohol abuse and consequent psychological distress in their colleagues with whom they are very close to and consequently carry out very useful strategies of support (with dialogue, affective closeness and no judging attitude) but if necessary also report the situation to mental health specialists. It is therefore essential to activate internal awareness campaigns for the police to spread awareness about the problem of alcoholism to let everyone identify dangerous situations for their co-workers. In the end it can be said depression is a disorder strongly correlated to suicide risk.In order to identify critical conditions of police officers, an annual visit should be provided by a specialist to assess the psychological conditions, examining their resilience, their coping style, their family balance and the presence of symptoms of mental illness but the ability to identify a (generic) situation of uneasiness related to depression of their colleagues should also be owned by all the policemen who, without taking a “clinical” attitude, can give an important contribution through support and closeness.
