because and this is how many police departments see it. If you are seeking mental help then you are unfit for duty, if you are not asking help then you don't need it. Needing help is weakness and that makes you unfit. Would it be better to have regular mental check ins, yes it would be but it is a real up hill battle.

It doesn't matter how much people on the outside of the police tyr to push help if they just reject it.
