    As someone who got fibromyalgia in their 20s, that’s what life is like.

          Sounds more like OP has to go work on the back. Haha!!

          Yeah, bad puns are also something terrible that happens when turning 40.

        I’ll be 36 next month. I let myself slept in this morning until I woke up. I have a crick in my neck and the left side of my lumbar spine is a dull mass of burning discomfort. I’d rather sleep 6.5 hours every night than wake up feeling like this every day.

    Ya’ll need to put the bong down and get up out of your gaming chairs every so often and move more. I’m 41 and I don’t feel like this.

      Exactly, I’m 38 also, and this is already like 90% true. Just need a good walking stick.

    I am forty. My biggest fear is surviving another 40 years. I hope I can die soon.
