This is an excellent post! Mental health is definitely overlooked in athletes nowadays. I think it's very brave for these people to talk about what they're struggling with and hope it can help others too.
Mental health is such a difficult subject to talk about. It’s really inspiring to see athletes coming forward and talking about it! Anxiety is crippling at times which is awful. I wish more people would open up! Xo
I don't know if you know much about British sports stars, but a former cricketer names Freddie Flintoff struggled with bulimia through his career and still does now. The BBC did a great documentary about his struggles

Wow mental health is so difficult to discuss for normal people leave alone athletes!
In my day job i'm a mental health researcher. Anxiety can be really paralysing for some people, even if they don't show it openly.
Gosh it’s amazing how so many hide it. Thanks for bringing more awareness of this issue.
