Harris, who was on two gold-medal-winning World Cup teams, has consistently worked with mental illness nonprofit To Write Love on Her Arms (TWLOHA). She has a history with depression, addiction, and aggression, but she told POPSUGAR in a previous interview that she knows what her triggers are, and she is equipped with all of the necessary resources such as sports psychologists and therapists.
When Harris was younger, she watched her family deal with drug and alcohol abuse, and she acted out. She was set up with a sports psychologist and started to open up. "All that aggressiveness that I saw and felt as a kid started to lift off me just because I could tell him my story," she recalled to Orlando Sentinel.
However, Harris's struggles continued, and before her work with TWLOHA began, she was heavily addicted to Adderall, she told Orlando Sentinel. She became involved with the nonprofit in order to help others going through similar experiences. The 34-year-old goalkeeper for the Orlando Pride said in a video for TWLOHA that her support system is full of people who lift her up when she's struggling, her fans included.
