Mindyra is proud to be partnering with champion squash player Amanda Sobhy, as its first official Mindyra ambassador athlete. Currently ranked no. 3 in the world, making her the highest-ranked U.S. born player ever by Professional Squash Association world rankings, Sobhy has won four U.S. National Championships and the 2021 Oracle Netsuite Open. She is also a former college champion at Harvard University. But Amanda is much more than a championship athlete. Late last year, she publicly detailed her 10-year struggle with an eating disorder and the subsequent emotional toll it took on her mental health and well-being. Today, Amanda shares her own personal story with people around the world in hopes of impacting their lives by sharing the message that mental and physical struggles affect everyone. As a Mindyra ambassador, Amanda will be sharing some thoughts on the challenges she has overcome and the battles she continues to fight here on our blog. The first installment can be found below.

During the lockdown that began in March 2020, I remember the challenges of quarantining at home with my family and having ill family members. I was not able to see any of my friends or have any other physical contact with people outside of my immediate family. I was not able to go anywhere unless it was around my immediate community. This was a remarkable change from how I traditionally lived my life, especially since I was born and raised in New York City where walking around, exploring, and being around others is a normal part of everyday living. It’s safe to say that the early stages of the pandemic had a huge mental toll on me. I felt that I lost control of my life.

The Rise of Mental Health Problems Mental health problems are on the rise across the United States, with recent estimates suggesting a near doubling of problems with depression, anxiety, substance abuse, and suicidal ideation in working age adults. Accompanying the increase in mental health problems are a variety of costly outcomes such as decreased employee productivity and increased healthcare costs.
