They lied about her "twisties". About why they happened


They made a whole documentary about her Tokyo failure and they hid the most important information - why they happened.

Just shows that they think their viewers are stupid and don't need to know all the details. And they know how bad it will look is she will admit it.

What happened is that she is taking meds her whole life for her hyperactivity or something. Those mends calm person and they have no fear and nerves. And WADA officially allowed her to take that as an exception. But Japan has strict rules about some medication and she was simply not allowed to get those medication into country.

So she went off her meds and suddenly had "twisties" when she could not control herself while rotating. When she was able to take her meds - "twisties" were gone as quick and they appeared.

They should have tell the truth since they were the ones making documentary. But they knew it would look like she is taking doping and her wins and doped. So they kept lying she had them out of nowhere.

Interesting. That makes sense. Have they said specifically what the meds were? I assume it’s for treating something like ADHD.
