OHIO STATE
Oct. 10 marks a special day for many people.
Of course to some, it’s their birthday. Happy birthday.
For others, and more importantly, it’s World Mental Health Day. People sometimes share their stories and help others, which is what the day is all about. Wednesday morning, Ohio State OL Branden Bowen shared his:
Today is World Mental Health Day so I thought I’d write a piece for anyone who is or has previously battled with their mental health. #WorldMentalHealthDay pic.twitter.com/P4TGUucskh

ESPN’s Kirk Herbstreit took notice:
Wow. This is so powerful. So happy to hear your doing better. Hope others, that have similar struggles, can use this as motivation to heal. Thank you for sharing your story. Wish you all the best. https://t.co/jGBFRfzAZc

Bowen, who tweeted Wednesday morning, is reportedly close to returning to the football field for the Buckeyes. He suffered a leg injury midway through the season last year that cost him the rest of 2017.
Bowen hasn’t been back yet, but could return at some point in 2018. As for Burrell, he was a former Buckeye who transferred to Sam Houston State in May.
Sam Houston State competes in the FCS and Burrell’s announcement back in May came very soon after QB Joe Burrow let his intentions known that he was leaving the program.
