This year’s season is extremely tough for. The 27-year-old Norwegian jumper did not go on because of the positive test results for. He is also doing poorly in the World Cup. He is only 25 in the general classification. He jumped into the top ten only twice. All this made Forfang struggle with depression. He told about it in an interview with Norwegian media.
Forfang’s sincere confession. He fights depression
– The Olympic Games were my biggest goal. The whole season has been extremely tough, and when you get such a punch it becomes extremely hard. I will not hide that I was devastated. I began to wonder if there was any point in doing something that made me so unhappy afterwards. I’ve come to such an age that it’s time to think whether it is worth taking care of other things – he said in an interview with tv2.no.
In an interview for NRK, he admitted that his partner, Kristin Solberg, was a great support. She supported him after each failed contest. “I know it influenced her too, but she’s as hard as a rock to me.” For several years, I have actually been taking off without any results. Of course, it takes away my mood and destroys relationships with my loved ones, Forfang said.
“It was very difficult,” says Solberg. – You just have to pick up the phone after the competition and cheer up as much as possible. When you fail so many in a row for a long time, you end up hitting rock bottom.
– He has a remarkable ability to cheer up. When I break down, she’s insanely strong. She was an incredibly important support – added the jumper.
Forfang is currently participating in the series. The beginning was exceptionally successful for the Norwegian. Usually players don’t pay any attention to wins in qualifying or training, but this time it was different. Forfang won the prologue in Lillehammer and was the leader of the cycle for a while. – I needed a kick. I had butterflies in my stomach. It’s a feeling I haven’t had after the jump for a long time – he admitted. Unfortunately, it was bad in the competition itself. Forfang did not even make it to the second round and lost his chances of a good result in the cycle.
