Hi guys. Im new here so i don't know that Has this topic ever been discussed on the forum - I want to ask people who follow pro riders and maybe know if some of them struggle with mental problems and yet managed to reach the highest level in extreme sports and also ask you, people who struggle with their own psyche on a daily basis and still practice this sport.

I am diagnosed with ADHD, depression and BPD. I love our sport even though it's really hard at times, even though I see my friends cope with things that are beyond my head. I started to think that maybe this sport was not for me and that maybe it was too much of "swimming against the current.
That's why I registered here, to find out what it's like for other people. And that there is maybe hope that it makes sense to ride MTB if I like it and it doesn't have to involve huge mental discomfort every time Big Grin
