Puig speaks on depression battle: "My last three years have been dark"

Despite that though, there has not been much more success for the Puerto Rican since then with a sole final appearance at the 2017 Luxembourg Open of note but as she revealed in an interview with the La Nacion newspaper, it has been a real battle since that triumph.

“My last three years have been dark. I didn’t have a focus. I was very entangled in a lot of things and I neglected myself. I didn’t pay attention to valuable things or those that interested me; I just pleased others.” said Puig.

“I stopped going out with friends and family. I was always on the phone and reading comments on social networks, which I did pay attention to. I could have fifteen positive messages, but I read only one negative and that sank me. I was too bad.”
