How first responder culture should support mental health | Morgan Englund | TEDxWalden Pond
TEDx Talks· 2025-12-05 17:51
Core Argument - The first responder culture, particularly within fire departments, fosters a "macho" or "suck it up" mentality that discourages emotional expression and help-seeking, leading to a higher suicide rate among firefighters than deaths in the line of duty [8][9][12] - The origins of this culture can be traced back to industrial stoicism and institutionalized in police and fire departments, promoting a code of silence that exacerbates mental health issues [13][14][15] - Chronic suppression of emotion can lead to various health problems, including depression, PTSD, obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart disease [16] - The code of silence can also enable bullying, shaming, and humiliation within the ranks, further contributing to the mental health crisis [17][18][19] Supporting Evidence & Statistics - Firefighters are three times more likely to die by suicide than to be killed in the line of duty [9] - The speaker lost three friends to suicide during their time in the fire department [9] - More first responders die by suicide than are killed in the line of duty every year [8] Proposed Solutions & Call to Action - The industry needs to acknowledge the humanity of first responders and create a culture that supports emotional expression and mental health [25] - The industry should consider adding a promise to serve and protect each other into the oath of office for police and fire departments [24] - The "warrior's grip" could be a symbol of renewed commitment to brotherhood and mutual support within the first responder community [24][25][26]
