This needs to be talked about more
Working on it everyday!!
this is real af. i just finished playing 4 years of d1 ball after pro ball not working out. feel like idk who i am or that i really matter anymore. the feeling of truly being alone with your thoughts and yourself is more than ever. this needs to be talked about more, once the camera and lights go away you feel like no one sees you anymore.
So true! Just know that you’re not alone and that this is another part of being an athlete. It will pass but you have to find your identity outside the game and your true purpose.
This is how I felt after college track and field. It's like I lost myself. Track was amazing to clear thoughts and emotions. More like running pushed them down more. One thing is finding yourself in Christ Jesus (not the boring and religious Jesus)

Brother I feel you I’m 27 since I graduated I have my own Buisness now I can’t watch it now I broke down in tears. Last time I went to a game I spent my whole life I playing football and now as a Buisness owner I still feel hurt About it today have been the first time since I was 23 years old I went to a CrossFit gym I lost the drive ever since I left collage The meaning of life I can’t explain it so used to game time a purpose to get it and grind every day even today it felt wired to even be back at a gym Thank you for shareing im glad I’m not the only one going thru this
@@bryangonzalez7283 that’s real brother! You’re not alone, thanks for sharing!
I feel Fukin bad for stopping my sport. I thought about it for the last year now. I play it since I’m 6 and now I’m 16. I cant walk for like two days after every game and I fucked my shoulder already. I‘m scared of stopping but now I spoke to my coaches and made the decision to stop. The sport is a constant for me, like an anker in life. It’s gonna be hard to find something like this again. Thanks for this vid.
Thanks for sharing your story my man. It happens to us all at some point, by choice or by force. Keep your head up, you’re not alone!
Been about a month since my college baseball career, definitely something I'm working on. Have certainly felt lost as of late
You got this!!
Wow this is spot on nobody talks about this
Thank you! I talk about it because it’s needed. I hope it adds value to everyone who hears it!
needed this! going through this exact situation this vid helped so much ! thank you !
Thank you for sharing that! You got this! Glad to hear it helped!!
Personal training?
Commentary?
Coaching?
Or total change in profession...
man, I just won yesterday a medal on hammer throw on my last year in college and since I'm finishing college, idk what to do next, been doing this for a long time and is hard for me to leave it, Is part of me, I wanna continue cause I'm 23 and young for this sport, but where I'm from is really hard to get support by the federation and is frustrating for athlete who are making progress in this sport, I really don't know what to do...
I hear you brother! Sounds like it’s decision time. You either go after those dreams somewhere else where you can get support or you get ready to make the transition into your next chapter. Either way will be tough, but you have to pick your tough. Lastly I’d say, that’s what you do, that’s not who you are! So don’t let the sport define you. It has equipped you with the tools to be successful in whatever you decide to do next!
@@derrickfurlowjr appreciated the words, thanks man 🤝🏾
Glad I found this
Glad to hear it helped! Check out the others and share it with others that you believe need to hear it!!
how to you handle it being ended abruptly due to injury? I was injured in a mens league game before heading overseas, then covid hit. Covid caused so many financial issues I couldn’t keep pursuing my dream. I never had closure, and I fight myself every day knowing I could still go play
That sucks but you’re not alone. The game will come to a end by choice or force and it’s happening everyday. If you can still play the question is what’s stopping you from playing?
Bro I love your bracelet! Thank you for what youre doing
Thanks my brother!!
@@derrickfurlowjr of course! Can we connect somewhere outside of RUclips?
Holla at me on IG
THIS NEEDS MORE VIEWS
Agreed my brother! Share away!!
Whatever, atheletes attract people because of their body and then find a job and make a living.
I don’t think understand your perspective?
That's not true have you ever seen what a cornerback a wide receiver a point guard a lot of different positions what they look like in regular street clothes or with a regular suit on they look like an average man a lot of them are only 5'9 5 ft 11 6 ft they don't look like anything out in society so I'm not sure what you're talking about the attract people with their body they're normal men that have to make it happen after the sports career is over and it can be a nightmare because they weren't focused on the things that all you other people were focused on since you were 14 years old which was probably being pushed into a high paying career... A lot of you cats have been groomed since you were 13 or 14 and to be coming dentists businessman financial institution people etc but us athletes all we cared about was lifting weights getting a scholarship to play football and hopefully playing in the NFL... And then all of a sudden you don't make it and you're 22 years old and you have almost no other skills and it's no joke...
