“Pressure Busts Pipes:” Athletes’ Battle with Anxiety

"Give it Context" Podcast by “Jovi Nation”

NEWS FLASH: Athletes are NOT robots! They have feelings like normal human beings. The stressors of your “9 to 5” job differ depending on the occupation; and more importantly, the levels of stress. Although shooting a basketball, or throwing a football are activities we may have all enjoyed as kids, the stakes grow with every DOLLAR you make doing so. In this episode, I discuss some of the more notable cases of athletes sharing their battles with anxiety, depression, and coping with stress in their respective jobs. Fans of the world, Just remember: The game you pay a ticket to see, isn’t as easy WE (athletes) make it seem, nor as simple to perform as YOU believe it appears.
