The problem with mental health issues right now is that there are people who say "I've felt anxiety before, I've felt depressed before, I understand."

Just reading through everything she's gone through, I can see why she wouldn't be totally there mentally. I don't understand it, because I haven't gone through that. But I can give her the benefit of the doubt.

Also, if she's not 100%, maybe she shouldn't compete? Wouldn't a different world-class gymnast be able to do better than Biles at 75%? 50%? Who knows where she was at, but she felt that she shouldn't compete. It should be viewed as a physical injury. Remember when Riley Nelson had a broken back, and while heroic, we would have done better with someone who could actually throw the football.

I keep seeing Biles compared to Jordan. "Jordan wouldn't have done something like this!" He missed almost an entire season due to injury. He didn't play in every single game. Did he play when it was manageable? Yes. But Biles felt like it wasn't manageable. So maybe, instead of saying "I've been stressed before so I know exactly what it's like," give her the benefit of the doubt?
