Mental Health Awareness in Sport

Mental health awareness in sport focuses on recognizing and addressing athletes' psychological well-being, emphasizing that mental health is as important as physical health. It involves understanding common issues like stress, anxiety, depression, and pressures related to performance and public scrutiny. Promoting open conversations, providing support resources, and reducing stigma help athletes seek help when needed. Recognizing mental health as a key component of overall performance encourages healthier, more resilient athletes, fostering a sports environment that values both mental and physical well-being for sustainable success and personal growth.
