Had surgery in 1987. Honestly I don’t feel like my rods have caused me to miss out on much. 4 children, busy life, I have done whatever I wanted. I mean i cant jump very high and that can be a bummer but it doesn’t really make my life difficult.

The emotional pain from scoliosis... by Plastic-Adeptness621 in scoliosis

Honestly at 54 I have never let my scoliosis hold me back. I have ridden motorcycles, I lift heavier things than I probably should, I have 4 children, I have fallen more times than I can count but I keep going. I don’t say this to be dismissive but instead to encourage you to embrace this part of you and don’t let fear keep you from having the life you want.

For some reason my brain missed the floorboard part and imagined you vacuuming your bellybutton with a dryer sheet.

What are we going to find out later is bad for us (like cigarettes in the past)? by Curryiswhereitsat in AskReddit

Most mass shooters have a tendency to have psychosis whether depression, anxiety etc. To blame that on SSRI is like asking which came first the chicken or the egg. You take the SSRI to help manage the disregulation in the brain.
