You deserve the right support. Active duty, reservists, veterans, and first responders have work demanding immense strength and dependability. Work pressures, witnessed traumas, and the need to manage burdens most civilians will never see and can't comprehend are common. You may have had exposure to violence, death, severe injury, and moral injury such as being faced with difficult decisions with life-or-death consequences. You may have "burned in images," guilt, shame, and even ambivalence of wanting to live.
