Im very upset with a decision I made in the past. I joined a running team. That was a horrid decision. It’s bringing down my mental health and wearing me out. my coach is constantly bringing me down and just doesn’t understand that I’m struggling with the running. I’m not sure what to do anymore.

      I was on the cross country team and my dad refused to let me quit, even tho it was very hard on my mental health and my grades. I’d advise you to get out of the sport if possible. It’s not giving up if you’re taking care of yourself ❤️ Also I just want to point out that running is VERY hard and not very many people can do it so you should be proud of yourself for sticking to it this far :)

      You quit. Nothing is worth your mental health like that. If you're worried about what your coach or team is gonna say, it doesn't matter. You don't owe them a damn thing. Your mental health comes first.

      So stop... it should be something you enjoy and if it is just stressing you out, it's ok to stop.

      I’m so sorry to hear this. It can be a really difficult situation. I want you to know that there is no shame in quitting - esp for your mental health. even Simone biles did it and she’s one of the GOATs!!! No matter what you decide to do, just know that you deserve to take care of yourself
