Just like one in five Americans, many Olympic athletes similarly face serious mental health challenges and struggle to find the necessary support and resources. The Weight of Gold seeks to inspire discussion about mental health issues, encourage people to seek help, and highlight the need for readily available support.

This really opened my eyes about what goes on behind the scenes for every Olympian. Makes me feel really bad about those who don't find as much success at the Olympics
