Description
Student-athletes may experience immense pressure, both academically and athletically, which can lead to mental health challenges. Balancing schoolwork, training, and competitions is compounded by early specialization, social media scrutiny, and high parental expectations. Body image issues and managing academic workloads also contribute to their struggles. Providing student-athletes with mental health resources, promoting body positivity, and encouraging them to diversify their interests can help foster resilience. Support from coaches and teammates is crucial for creating a healthy environment where student-athletes can thrive. Though these efforts can be impactful, they should not replace professional mental health care.
