Medvyedeva told how she encountered bullying on social networks
MOSCOW, Mar 11 - RIA News. Russian figure skater Yevgeniya Medvyedeva spoke out about bullying and insults that she encountered on social networks.
In May 2018, Medvyedeva moved from coach Eteri Tutberidze to Canadian specialist Brian Orser.
“ To be honest, at first I was a little afraid of them, because what they were doing was beyond my comprehension. I thought: “ Why are you wasting your time on me? Why are you all doing this? I didn’t do anything bad to you. " But in any case, I just let it go. I will never understand them. So now I just don’t pay attention and try not to check all the comments. Honestly, sometimes it’s very painful because I I don’t understand what it is for, " Medvyedeva told in an interview with Olympic Channel.
At the same time, the skater noted that she was not depressed about this.
“ Sometimes I want to run away from all this. But at the same time, I understand that it is part of my work. Therefore, I just need to cope with it, go through it and move on, ” the athlete added.
Medvyedeva also admitted that in addition to negative messages, she receives positive comments.
“ I feel a lot of love in my life. From the side. It's amazing. The worst part is that there are many expectations, many people look at you like under a microscope and try to find something bad. But this is part of my life, it makes me stronger. Therefore I love my life, " concluded the skater.
