Swimmer Adam Peaty said he is 'not enjoying the sport' after struggling with his mental health over the last few years - but he will continue training with the 2024 Olympics in mind.
Sharing the news on his Instagram page, Peaty said he had struggled with his mental health over the last few years"and I think it's important to be honest about it".
"Some might recognise it as burnout; I just know that over the last few years I haven't had the answers. With help, now I know how I can address the imbalance in my life," he wrote. "Everyone wants to sit in your seat until they have to sit in your seat... very few people understand what winning and success does to an individual's mental health. They don't understand the pressures these individuals put on themselves to win over and over again.
