“I don’t think people understand the magnitude of what I go through.”
Despite her struggles, Biles said she's"proud" of herself for working to improve her mental health, something she's continuing to do by becoming the chief impact officer of and an investor in Cerebral, a mental health app.
"Over the years after suppressing so many emotions and putting up a front on a global scene, I think all of that really came to light," she explained."My body and my mind allowed me to suppress all of that stuff for so many years, for as long as it could take. As soon as we stepped onto the Olympic scene, it just decided it couldn't do it anymore and it cracked."
Though she's confident that she will get better, Biles said that the whole situation did"kind of suck."
