Anyone every had a call that seemed "Trivial" but you couldn't shake it? a call that shouldn't bother you but seems to?
My coping mechanism most often is this: We (the fire department) did not cause whatever just happened. We're there to help the best we can and the outcome is what it is. As a team we talk about every run and support each other, never ever feeling guilty about what we did on the run. If someone says, "I think I could have done that differently..." we make sure before we end the conversation that what that person is feeling is not guilt, but only a desire to do a better job in a given situation in the future. We remember the past but do not dwell on it.
