Forgot how tiring gym work is. Had bad sleep due to neck pain, but I played on my PS5 and stayed in that weird position, so I'm not surprised.

There's something weird that is going on, as well. You see, I've been playing on my Playstation 5 for quite a while since 2022, when these symptoms appeared. And there's a certain position that I play in that gives me "stability" (in the sense that I can stay concentrated when playing, with the controller not wobbling around). And I've stayed in that position for hours, with my pecs contracted and hunched forwards. And ever since then these things appeared.

Yet another weird thing is that these weird symptoms appeared on 24th February 2022, when Russia invaded Ukraine. Maybe some unconscious mental event happened that is giving me these symptoms.

Alternatively, it's because I started jumping again in 2022 and because my right knee is messed up, I couldn't land properly and absorb the landing, so the shocks went to the spine.
