....“I was a
college athlete and had no idea who I was beyond that,” she said. “Then I
came crashing down. It’s difficult because your whole life you are
cheered on because you are so good at sports. But that doesn’t have to
define you as a person.” Watts
said lingering stigmas around mental illness, and a former boyfriend
who discouraged therapy, delayed her from reaching out for help. But
once she did, she not only realized she could help herself, but that her
story could perhaps help others.... Bethany`s Notes: No one is alone. There are people who have gone through similar situations. Ask for help. If you are a coach, check in with your athletes and ask how they are doing...listen and dig deeper if necessary. | ||
