They are not only engulfed by the academic responsibilities of being a college student, but they also have to navigate the grueling demands of playing a sport at a competitive level.  “Today’s athletes face a different set of stressors than athletes in previous generations. The differences are seen in a growing number of complex and more intense mental health challenges” (Bauman, 2016, p. 135). Mental health is a huge component of everyday life, and the skills essential to maintain a positive mental health state need to be trained and fostered carefully. When an individual experiences a disruption in mental health, the individual can endure feelings of low self-esteem, an inability to mange time, and an inability to cope with adversity.  Female collegiate athletes are faced with many challenges and hardships during their athletic experience (Barcella, 2017). Therefore, having the proper tools and skills to maintain a positive mental health status, as well as the ability to regain control of a positive mental health status after sustaining a disruption is imperative.  In order to decrease burnout, as well as protect and promote positive mental health, the need for research on how to identify mental health stressors in athletes, as well as the ability to provide them with a skill set that allows for them to navigate those stressors is essential. ]]> 2020-07-08 21:27:09 UTC https://padlet.com/marinarodianna/26shlp6f7s5mxdw5/wish/650472434 marinarodianna https://padlet.com/marinarodianna/26shlp6f7s5mxdw5/wish/650472722 2020-07-08 21:27:45 UTC https://padlet.com/marinarodianna/26shlp6f7s5mxdw5/wish/650472722 marinarodianna https://padlet.com/marinarodianna/26shlp6f7s5mxdw5/wish/650488502 Bhugra, D., Till, A., & Sartorious, N.
