Lindsey Vonn shared crucial advice on World Mental Health Day

Lindsey Vonn is widely known for her heroics on the slopes; however, outside of the sport, she is also known for being one of the biggest advocates for mental health. She has experienced depression and has written about it in her memoir, and along with this, she never falls short of initiating honest conversations about it on her social media.

Most recently, on World Mental Health Day, she shared some advice with her followers on Instagram by posting a bunch of pictures with her skiing companions on her Instagram handle and penning a lengthy note in the caption that read:

"It’s World Mental Health Day… and I’ve been doing a lot of reflecting. No one truly knows what someone else is going through. We often struggle in silence, putting on a brave face and pretending everything is fine — even when it’s not. That’s why it’s so important to check in with the people you care about," wrote Lindsey Vonn.

She added:

"I go through things every day that most people will never know about. But when I’m surrounded by friends, family, and teammates who care, it makes life lighter... And through it all, I’ve learned how important it is to hold on to the things that bring you joy. For me, skiing has always been one of those things — a place where I feel free, present, and connected to myself..."

Lindsey Vonn recently opened up about finding comfort in her puppy, Chance, amid her training sessions.
