Once during an interview with PEOPLE.com, Simone shared an effective way of dealing with anxiety attacks. She shared a practical way that her therapist has told her. Simone vocalizes, “I have pretty bad anxiety sometimes, so she tells me in my worry journal to put from 12 to 1 p.m. — that’s the time I’ve selected — and anything I’ve written down in my worry journal, I use that hour to worry about the things then. And usually, by the time 12 or 1 [p.m.] comes, I’ve already forgotten about all my worries, so that kind of is a tool that helps me.”
After going through her tough time with depression and anxiety, Biles became a mental health advocate for other athletes. Her story inspired many boxers, gymnasts, and figure skating professionals. Yet the world waits for her words on her upcoming appearance in 2024’s Olympics.
