    Not to brag, but I’m 40 and have none of these, it’s surprising and a bit depressing to me that so many people have these ailments at such an early age. I wish you as many pain free and healthful years as possible.

      I wish me a speedy death.

      My knee has been screwed up since birth and somedays I can’t walk on it. My lower back was destroyed when I was 10 because some idiot didn’t follow simple instructions. I have constant headaches because of a glasses prescription that I can’t afford to get changed. I have arthritis in my feet. I own 3 canes. I am 31.

      Pretty much the only pain I don’t have is hip pain.

      I’ve had arthritis since I was like 24 or 25. It really does suck… I miss the days when I didn’t hurt constantly.

      I know, right? I’m 30 and only have a slight knee discomfort because I lifted heavy on squats for a long time before changing to a lower weight higher rep regimen. I hear so many people complaining about having issues and unless it’s from an injury I just imagine it’s because lemmy self selects for the chronically online (and usually unhealthy as fuck.)

        Nice of you to assume that everybody here is chronically online and unhealthy unlike you.
