For anyone who thinks Simon Biles is “weak and selfish” for prioritizing her mental health over competing, just know…Simone may never hear the insensitive and critical things you’re saying, but your friend & family who struggle with their mental health issues absolutely will. It is NEVER weak choice to choose to put yourself first and prioritize your health. Nothing, not even a gold medal, is worth destroying yourself for. Athletes’ mental health matters. Your mental health matters. Mental. Health. Matters. Period. Don’t let anyone try and convince you otherwise. ❤️
