Which behavior signifies not going home for some officers?

Working overtime can signify that some officers are not going home due to various underlying reasons. This behavior often reflects a desire to avoid returning to their home environment, which may be filled with stress, emotional challenges, or relationship issues. For these officers, staying at work can feel like a way to escape from personal problems, provide a sense of purpose, or distract themselves from unresolved issues.

In the context of emotional survival, working overtime may lead to a cycle of neglecting personal relationships and self-care, which can further exacerbate feelings of isolation and distress. Recognizing this pattern is crucial for officers and their support systems to help address the root causes and encourage healthier coping mechanisms.
