Abstract: Those in policing often suffer from adrenal exhaustion and fatigue, a byproduct of daily hypervigilance, which can create dysregulation of cortisol - the stress hormone. This cortisol and adrenaline dysregulation causes officers to "come alive" during their shift and causes them to crash with fatigue and hormonal dumps at the end of their shift.
