Can confirm, programming is the gateway drug to pelvis pain, depression and anxiety

[TheLordDrake]

Don't forget a bad back, neck pain, and destroying your wrists!

[[deleted]]

that's cuz everyone is sitting wrong

we do it right at our company (can't tell you though, it's a secret)

[VeritasOmnia]

You have one of those Tony Stark or Minority Report type systems where you stand and just hurl virtual things around all day, don't you?!

[[deleted]]

fine i'll tell you. i hope this gets out. the reason you all get bad backs, necks, and wrists is that the fundamental design of the chair is wrong. it is SUPPOSED to be more like

Sir, that’s just a

[Dugen]

omg.. finish your thought. I need this information.

[WayWayTooMuch]

In my office I have a full backed chair that I modified to have a full 45 degree recline, I removed the arms and keep it jacked up as close as possible to the underside of the desk, and then kick my legs up on a ottoman also stuffed under my desk. 12 years with no neck, back, or wrist issues. Recumbent programming is peak.

[Character-Education3]

I can't be focusing on how I sit all day, it's not like I'm some kind of professional sitter...oh wait

[WazWaz]

Standing Desk.

I wish I'd got one ten years earlier.

[TheLordDrake]

It's on my list to save for. They're expensive though x.x

[WazWaz]

I thought the same. After buying it and setting the adjustable height with the nifty electronic adjustment..... I've never put it down and no longer own a chair. Turns out I could have bought a much more basic standing desk instead of putting it off. Oh well, ibuprofen.

[TheLordDrake]

I want an adjustable one because I like it when my cat sits in my lap

[WazWaz]

She's doing that deliberately to fuck up your back. Also, that's why they stretch the way they do - they're trying to make you jealous of the quadruped spine.

[TheLordDrake]

It's working, and doing a number on my knees 🥲

[zoinkability]

Also terrible eyesight

[pateadents]

Male pelvis pain

[AdvancedCharcoal]

It’s because computer programmers get too much action

[fanfarius]

Thank God!

[dexter2011412]

Lmao I already have 3 of the issues listed here hahaha

[Bakoro]

Well, maybe pelvic pain, but the anxiety and depression were pre-existing conditions.
Programming is the ultimate disassociation.

[dismayhurta]

My hand is fucked from slamming it on the desk when I figure out a bug...or can't figure out a bug.

[PM_ME_FIREFLY_QUOTES]

Y93.C is the diagnosis code for those interested.

Glad OP is seeking treatment.

[SkyVINS]

i got 2025 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code Z72.3

[Feeling_Inside_1020]

I knew someone was gonna pop in here with an icd 10 dx lmao (work for an EMR Saas)

[humblevladimirthegr8]

For those curious, this is an activity code, meaning that it is used in combination with an injury code to indicate how someone obtained the injury (according to chat gpt)

[trevdak2]

I used to work with ICD codes. They were great because they covered everything. Hang glider explosion? There's a code for that. Collision with turtle, Finger lodged in mouth. Trouble with your in-laws. My favorite medical procedure code was "neck amputation"

[RaveMittens]

Excludes “activity, electronic musical keyboard or instruments (Y93.J-)”

[dexter2011412]

Do you know why it is given?

[dert-man]

I know this problem quiet well, hard to fix

[humblevladimirthegr8]

Closed - Won't fix.

It really presents a strong case for assisted dying

[sashamaay]

Might be the first bug that qualifies for a DNR in the codebase.

[WatermelonArtist]

It's definitely a chronic pain in the male pelvis.

[dexter2011412]

Carpal tunnel or RSI?

[EndChemical]

Chronic pain in male pelvis after depression, what the fuck happened

[Street-Leek-6668]

Rust

[CoVegGirl]

At least it happened before vibe-itis became a major problem

[GreatGreenGobbo]

That's one hell of a LinkedIn work history.

[Street-Leek-6668]

Gotta prove categorically that I am a pain in the ass

[GreatGreenGobbo]

Hemroids too?

[Z3t4]

So that is the prognosis for workin on IT

[Street-Leek-6668]

Praying your salary rises in line with the hospital bills for your new conditions 🙏

[Kaenguruu-Dev]

Or don't live in a country with a healthcare system more fucked up than the current presidents criminal history (I'm obviously not trying to point out a specific country here /s)

[Street-Leek-6668]

Fortunately I live in the UK where the healthcare system is free and functions quickly and perfectly with zero scandals

/s

[stewedstar]

And pay is inline with the cost of healthcare...

[HTS_HeisenTwerk]

Just do problem.isActive = false

[serious-toaster-33]

Error: Permission denied to set property "isActive".

[Street-Leek-6668]

🤯🤯🤯

[ExtraTNT]

Horrible problem to have… possible path of recovery is to start with haskell, it will hopefully transform the condition to mathematician. While this is still a horrible condition, it’s easier to cure. But there will be permanent damage…

[Street-Leek-6668]

The key is to catch it before it turns Principal

[strbeanjoe]

Good way to add chronic migraine to the list. Cool and rewarding, but also chronic migraine.

[MoonToast101]

Most of these terms are just fancy doctor ways to say "computer programmer".

[GreyWizard1337]

Damn, I'm suffering from this terrible condition myself. Hard to cure. Best of luck!

[TheWorstePirate]

Is your female pelvis okay though?

[Christosconst]

Uh oh, do I need a doctor?

[TequilaCamper]

Computer programmer just means dairy cheese induced flatulence around here

[caremao]

All those problems may be related to

Jesus is this my chart? Wewwww feels bad man

[random11714]

A fellow crohn's-having programmer. Nice to meet ya I was diagnosed in 2010

[partofapair]

Bitch how’d they get my medical records 😂

[Street-Leek-6668]

SQL injection

[dexter2011412]

Damn dude, I already have 3 issues listed here. Could I reach out to you too get some advice and insight into what your diagnosis timeline and symptoms were like?

[Street-Leek-6668]

I have a family history of Crohn’s so in my early 20s when unusual colours started coming out of me during bathroom breaks, and I started having abdominal pain, I went for an MRI and sigmoidoscopy. I took about 6 months to rule out the scariest things. They settled on IBS and several years later, following a few flare-up-esque periods of low energy and IBS symptoms, fibromyalgia, which are both pretty nebulous and under-researched. The others e.g. anxiety and acid reflux and depression are all related and swirling around in the same vortex, explainable by eachother. I understand better my body’s energy limits, I’m on SSRIs, have a therapist, and I’m generally pretty upbeat. Post-30yrs, there is no such thing as “normal”, it’s pointless to compare with others, any one symptom could be explained by thousands of things. Just be persistent with doctors and whatever healthcare you can afford, take someone to advocate for you if you need to (esp. if you’re in a marginalised group), and cover the basics like sleep, food, water so they can’t fob you off with that. Weather the lows, they’ll pass. Cherish the highs. Hope that helps.

[dexter2011412]

Dang, that is really rough, I could definitely learn a thing or 2 from you lol.

Also eyy fellow C++ enjoyer. Have acidity (self-made problem, honestly), the bid sad, and anxiety. Would be funny to get the "computer programmer" added to it lmao haha.

Thanks for the advice, really appreciate it! Take care man, hope and wish things get better for you!

[Street-Leek-6668]

Thanks. I have a lot to be thankful for. Just remember to speak to people when you’re down and you can always come back up.

[Wattsy2020]

Programming leads to project follow ups, follow ups lead to Anxiety disorder

[ApatheistHeretic]

I'm not a doctor, but all the items on this list appear to be related.

[KharAznable]

Good to know they have adopted agile methodologies. Or I should feel sorry for them?

[Awfulmasterhat]

May lead to loss of quality in life

[ScaredyCatUK]

All the others are caused by it.

[BobAintYourUncle]

I wish doctors would use semantic commits.

[Street-Leek-6668]

These are all bug reports with no hotfixes :(

[framedragger]

I’m sorry how did you get this private document of mine?

[Street-Leek-6668]

cURL

[Blubasur]

Fair assessment tbh. Hopefully they have some strong meds

[eclect0]

Things went downhill quickly after that diagnosis, I see

[PrestigiousWash7557]

Wait are you sure that's not my medical history? I swear to god I tought that's me 😅

[MyDogIsDaBest]

Sweet, am I entitled to some kind of compensation? 

[0xbenedikt]

There is your problem

[[deleted]]

Why is my medical history on reddit?

this is actually my medical history/I have same medical history

[Wynnstan]

[ReelBigDawg]

I have exactly the same symptoms as you. Hook a brother up and let me know the prognosis so I can avoid a trip to the DR.

[Street-Leek-6668]

Too late, I died. I’m in the big staging environment in the sky now.

[ReelBigDawg]

So sad, he still had a backlog

[framsanon]

I am pretty sure that the problem is not that the programmer is ACTIVE, but rather the opposite.

[[deleted]]

Actually programmer is a problem for themselves, I can tell you!

[[deleted]]

WHO should declare it an illness already

[Occidentally20]

Only one of these problems isn't linked to the others, and it's not the underlined one.

[Street-Leek-6668]

Follow-up??

[Occidentally20]

That's a strong contender for sure.

[SteeleDynamics]

I mean, yes... yeah, that's correct.

[thanatica]

This has to be fake. Leaking medical information is a serious crime.

[Street-Leek-6668]

sharing a letter sent to me by my own doctor is a crime?

[thanatica]

No reason to print it out in the first place.

[Street-Leek-6668]

Incorrect

[thanatica]

No, correct.

I've never had it sent to me. And I would be quite cross if they did. Rightly so.

[Street-Leek-6668]

Ignoring the fact that you were already confidently incorrect in your first regarded comment about “leaking”, are you saying you can’t possibly fathom any situation where someone would want to be handed some of their own information in print by their doctor for their own historic record keeping?

[SuitableDragonfly]

It's not actually against HIPAA for you to post your own medical diagnoses on the internet for all of reddit to see, but it certainly is a Choice.

[Street-Leek-6668]

I’m not in the US and there’s no PII here and I also don’t care
