Athletes' Mental Health

Athletes’ mental health refers to their emotional, psychological, and social well-being, affecting how they think, feel, and perform. High-pressure environments, injury setbacks, and intense competition can lead to stress, anxiety, depression, or burnout. Just like physical injuries, mental health challenges are common and require understanding and support. Prioritizing mental health helps athletes perform at their best, recover from setbacks, and enjoy their sport while maintaining overall well-being. Recognizing these issues promotes a healthier sporting culture and encourages athletes to seek help when needed.
