Remember you are honored, cherished and loved. Please be safe and keep up the good work.  I struggled. I was in a dark place for a long time. I was in pain, and I masked it with alcohol.  I was contemplating hurting myself.  I finally decided to reach out and ask for help, and I am grateful I did. FHE Health and The Shatterproof Program saved my life. If you are struggling, you don’t have to stay there. We can and will help you. Reach out today at 303.960.9819. https://fherehab.com/ https://www.cjevolution.com/shatterproof One of the most powerful things you can do if you have made it through your storm is to share your story. While this might scare you, it is very therapeutic and it can also help so many people. My next guest is doing just that. Retired SGT Mark DiBona is helping so many first responders by sharing his struggles, and how he overcame them. He came close to taking his own life twice during his 33-year law enforcement career. His diagnoses of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), depression, and anxiety nearly ended his career. On his road to recovery, Mark was and is still very open about the struggles he encountered and the lack of support he received. Mark shares how he personally found strength to step away from the precipice and what the rest of us can do to help.  A great and powerful interview.   Find Mark here: https://bravo748.com/mark-dibona https://thinblueconnect.com/mark-dibona  https://www.linkedin.com/in/mark-dibona-a017585/    Stay tuned for more great episodes www.cjevolution.com   Patrick
