Aly Raisman Gets Candid About Her Struggle With PTSD

Aly Raisman is opening up about dealing with PTSD.

The 25-year-old Olympic gold medalist took to Instagram to share her thoughts after a particularly difficult therapy session.

“I feel completely drained as if I just completed an intense training session. My body aches,” Aly wrote.

She continued, “Some days I feel like I am moving forward and then the next day it feels like 3 steps back. Sometimes when I feel like I am beginning to heal from one part of my trauma, another memory pops up. When this happens I feel so sick that it is hard to have an appetite and it is hard to sleep.”

Aly concluded with a note to anyone who is experiencing the same thing.

“I hope you know you’re not alone & no matter how hard the PTSD gets we won’t feel like this forever. Sending a hug and love to anyone who needs it…I stand with you,” Aly concluded.

Aly Raisman & Sharna Burgess Helped To Inspire Bo Peep in 'Toy Story 4'

Aly Raisman & Sharna Burgess Helped To Inspire Bo Peep in 'Toy Story 4'

We’re so stoked to see Bo Peep back with the gang in Toy Story 4.

However, she’s been through quite a lot since being donated in between Toy Story 2 and Toy Story 3.

Revealed earlier this month, Bo Peep is back for an all new adventure and with that, came with some redesign.

The new porcelain character was inspired by a handful of your fave celebs, including gymnast Aly Raisman and dancer Sharna Burgess.

Bo’s “personality, movements, and overall aesthetic, they took inspiration from Rey (from Star Wars), Dottie (from A League of Their Own), [and] The Bride (from Kill Bill)” too.

Since she’s made of porcelain, too.

“Animators took special care and paid attention to the glaze she would have and all of the subtle cracks that appear in ceramics.”

So cool!

Toy Story 4 is out this summer.
