Listen "Don't Suffer in Silence"
Episode Synopsis
I never thought I would record this episode.
In Episode 16 of the Student Athlete Performance Podcast, we address an issue affecting athletes at all levels: mental health and suicide. Whether it's pressure, stress, bullying, trauma or self-destructive behaviors like drugs and alcohol, these silent struggles are too often overlooked in the athletic community... until it's too late.
I share my own story of battling depression and suicidal thoughts as a kid, overcoming loss, and the tragic reality that many of us are silently suffering. This episode is a call to seek help, find support, and understand that you’re not alone. And yes, dudes, that means you too.
If you or someone you know needs help, here are resources:
National Suicide Prevention Lifeline: 1-800-273-8255
Crisis Text Line: Text HOME to 741741
Substance Abuse Helpline (SAMHSA): 1-800-662-HELP (4357)
Sexual Assault Hotline (RAINN): 1-800-656-HOPE (4673)
Trevor Project (LGBTQ+ Support): 1-866-488-7386
For those struggling with sexual abuse, I highly recommend listening to the podcast: Life with Laura, where my friend Laura shares her own healing journey.
