No one applying pressure...more just wondering if it happens to people. If anything, those close to me worry I go too hard at it. Frankly I couldn't imagine doing anything else and that gives me as much satisfaction. I think one of the posts recently by the fellow who said he drifted away from it got me wondering. He stated he started at a very young age....so I guess that is maybe part of it.
Personally I don't think you have anything to be worried about. Your a smart kid who seems to have a good group of people around you who care for you. If you start overstepping the mark with training, by the sounds of it they will let you know. I think your thinking too far into the future, about what might happen, future problems which don't yet exist. Worry about them if they turn up, but right now enjoy the sport which makes you happy and chances are the problem won't arise. Nothing can make you more upset than thinking of worst case scenarios of the future, just having fun in the moment, that is probably the best advice I can give you, others may do better than me. But I hope this helps mate
