Loneliness is always there, it's a phase that comes and goes and it is a very difficult phase.
Adolescence is like cactus.
I think that from 15 to, like, 18, I went through a very rough time. Something basically everyone goes through in those years - not knowing what you're going to do.
Every team goes through a lean patch.
During my 'difficult teens,' I read about worlds that were mysterious.
Life with most teenagers was like having a low-grade bladder infection. It hurts, but you had to tough it out.
I was sort of a miserable teenager.
I had a lot of tough experiences at Bristol City. I came there for a few quid and was getting booed off by fans, got injured. I was out of the team due to injury but also because I was having an awful time playing wise. But they were amazing experiences.
I think the toughest phase of life is over, and I don't wish it on anyone. My family has gone through a lot, and I don't want to dwell on the past.
