Join Carlette Patterson, Head Sports Life Coach® & CEO of Patterson Sports Ventures® and Mark R. Allen, MD, Peak Sports Psychiatry to hear about recognizing substance abuse in yourself or others, what causes addiction in athletes and how to treat it.
Wellbeing:
- Substance abuse and addictive personality become a daily ritual and routine. Athletes can benefit from redirecting their energy after sport towards their ‘what’s next’.
- Athletes often develop an addiction as a coping mechanism during times of transition or retirement.
- Substance abuse will most likely have a detrimental effect on an athlete’s career and overall well being.
- Addressing substance abuse always starts with education and clear messaging to athletes that helps struggling athletes get to the root of their problem rather than starting by using drastically punitive action.
