On the way to handing himself in to detectives for an alleged double murder, former Sydney police officer Beau Lamarre-Condon reported a work-related psychological injury and claimed he had symptoms of schizophrenia, a jury has heard.
The half-hour call to a police assistance line was played at the 31-year-old's Supreme Court trial on Tuesday.
In it, he told the operator he had been seeing a psychologist for the previous year and a half.
Mr Lamarre-Condon has pleaded not guilty to two counts of murder over the deaths of Jesse Baird and his boyfriend Luke Davies on February 19, 2024, and is claiming self-defence.
He has been accused of shooting them with his police pistol in Mr Baird's Paddington home, before spending days cleaning the scene, disposing of evidence and leaving their bodies at a rural area at Bungonia, south of Sydney.
The then-senior constable told the police assistance line operator that since joining the force in August 2017, he had been exposed to "destruction, death and trauma" with "minimal support".
He also reported: "I have been bullied by multiple NSW Police Force members and when reporting bullying against myself no action has been taken."
In the call, Mr Lamarre-Condon said it had "caused me to not sleep, get anxious, it's caused me to have some symptoms of schizophrenia", before asking the operator to "just delete that whole thing".

He then provided similar details and added that the issue had "caused me to not have the mental capability that I had prior to joining the police force".
On the call, he mentioned someone was with him in the car driving him to a meeting with police.
"The detectives are already aware that I'm being driven there," he said.
When asked his expected return to work date or next medical appointment, he said: "I don't know when that's going to be, let's just make up a date."
He was told an incident number would be texted to his phone, but replied: "I'm going to put my mum's number because my phone's going to be taken off me in a moment."
