I just thought about waking up every day and how I must feel like I was winning. The choice to go out and play, see the fans and see that there are people who come to see me is quite an achievement. I'm not sure when I started to feel uncomfortable. It was as if that was no longer an achievement for me. I felt that I was very ungrateful for that fact. “
