After winning the 100-meter gold medal at the Paris Olympic Games by a razor-thin margin of 0.005 seconds, Noah Lyles took to social media to share an inspiring message.

Lyles, who has asthma, allergies, dyslexia, ADD, anxiety, and depression, emphasized that these challenges do not define what one can achieve. His post resonated widely, garnering over 280,000 likes.

Lyles has been open about his mental health struggles, particularly during the 2020 pandemic when he battled depression and started antidepressant medication. His candidness about these challenges has inspired many who face similar issues, reminding them that even top athletes have their struggles.

Lyles’ asthma, diagnosed at age five, significantly impacted his childhood. Frequent asthma attacks led to hospitalizations and homeschooling until his condition improved after surgery and environmental changes at home.
