In this sports psychology podcast, Dr. Cohn helps parents understand when their athletes should quit sports. Here is the question, Dr. Cohn answers in this episode:

BETH: I am struggling to figure out if I should quit basketball. I get stressed before every game and practice. I find myself making excuses not to go. This is the only sport I play, and therefore why I find myself attached. My stomach drops every time I think about playing and my mind thinks of the worst. Everything is just too intense. The two-hour practices and even games over the summer, and 11 months straight of playing. Can I overcome these feelings?
