Lemme ask you guys
Have you noticed when you sit, you always sit with one leg tucked up under you? I remember reading that most people with fibro do that, and my mom and I do, but I can't find any information about it.
I wanted to show my boss that it's actually a thing, that sitting 'properly' makes me incredibly uncomfortable. She's always harping on me about my posture

I switch almost every 15 minutes but I always sit in my work chair with one foot on a foot stool and one up under my leg
@LadyAlyxandrea I suspect it takes some pressure off the lumbar spine. But I'm not certain.
I know I adapt around my lower back way better then I do around my cervical issues. (sigh)
@RavenCT I think it's the compression on my muscles. I have bad RLS and I think it helps that
Eff what other people ‘think’ we ‘should’ do! I sit however makes me comfortable and so that nothing goes numb.
I sit that way, too; also I move a lot and change position often. I know I’m more hostile than I need to be, but it’s so freeing to just not care what others think/say. When they live in my body, maybe I can listen to them.
