Why Seeking Mental Health Support as an Athlete can Be Scary

1. You’re worried you’ll be told to give up your dreams in the sport to make peace with food, your body, and your overall outlook on life.

2. You know your current behaviors aren’t healthy long-term but feel justifiable because they seem to help. For example, someone who restricts food or over-exercises after overeating may avoid support because it’s their way of managing a negative behavior—and they don’t know another way.

3. It’s easier to maintain life as you know it than face change and uncertainty.

4. Seeking support can make you feel weak, undisciplined, incapable, or “not cut out for this,” so you suffer in silence to protect your identity or how others view you.

5. Help isn’t always helpful. Not every professional understands what you do, why you do it, or cares to hear your reasoning. You don’t want to pay to explain your lifestyle, risk being misunderstood, told to stop, or walk away with no solutions—so you don’t bother.

As a mental health professional who’s spent the last 10 years actively competing and pursuing physique goals while studying & serving in mental health, I can assure you: you can make peace with food and your body without sacrificing your goals.

I know this not just from helping thousands of athletes around the world—but because I’ve lived it myself.
