Team USA is addressing mental health at the 2022 Winter Olympics as they deal with the strain of a global pandemic for the second year in a row.
Norman said the athletes do what they can to be physically and mentally prepared, but that some of the stringent measures may be hard to handle.
Norman said that it's important not only for athletes to keep on top of any current treatments, but to have constant communication with their support staff for any new or evolving conditions that may be affecting them. "Whenever I think about Biles' decision, she really helped people speak up," Magavi said."I've had people say, 'I never thought you could even do that. If you were experiencing something like twisties, that could even say that.' I do think that her decision did bridge the gap between mental and physical health.
"Athletes are human beings like you and I," she said."Athletes have all kinds of insecurities. They want to win the gold as much as we want them to win it for us. But they also have the right to determine whether they want to play."
