Hi, Do understand your problem and the stress you undergoing. Now things are getting slightly better and good days are going to come soon. Mental stress do have an impact on physical health. Probably the reason for your knee pain could be lack of physical exercises or stress. Trust in yourself and can regain your skills by putting slightly more effort. Its just a matter of time. You can probably focus on your area of interest, developing new hobbies or skills and exploring new opportunities. Best wishes!

I understand your predicament. Your concerns are justified indeed. Nevertheless, I would like you to take a step back and reflect on what has brought you so far as a Badminton player. Isn't it your love for the game? As you know, Success and Excellence are two different terms. Success is a byproduct of your journey towards excellence in your field/craft. Believing that you are in the rat race towards being ' The Best ' and constantly indulging in thoughts on the same could induce fear, anger, frustration, and so on whenever something does not work out in your favor. But, if your focus is always on being ' Your Best ', and if your aspirations are fueled by your love for your game and that alone, then, no matter what the circumstances are, you will figure out ways to keep yourself in top form, learn techniques and strategies and always make sure you are on the learning path. Luck = preparation meeting opportunity. When you are committed towards excellence or proficiency in your craft, success is inevitable.
