Hurting...

More police officers have died by suicide this year so far than in the line of duty. NYPD Commissioner James O'Neill said the department was in the throes of a "mental health crisis."

For us, we are hurting right now," he said. "We’re all feeling it and we’re all trying as best as we can to come up with initiatives to do more."

Police official said the department is bringing in outside resources to work with officers. He told WNYC-FM the department is also "looking to get peer counselors so cops at each level, if you are in crisis, you can go talk to someone at your level that will have the training."

We're only human.   Just a thought.
