Mental health is super important, and the pressure for her to perform was ridiculous.I feel like if Simone Biles needed to step out due to mental health that's a good thing to do.
I wonder why she didn't drop out of all of the individual events at once (so she could go home to family etc. faster) but I assume it was probably since it was a tough decision for her so she needed time to decide for each event (since they don't occur all at the same time)
