Well, I'm not sure where to begin. When I
use the mouse to my computer for example,
after only a minute or two I find myself
flexing my arm muscles and kind of pushing
my fingers and palm hard into the mouse. I
also tend to pick it up very slightly
above the desktop and kind of tap it on
the desk in an aggressive, hard manor that
doesn't necessarily favor tapping while
flexing said muscles.
Other times I find myself flexing muscles
in the jaw or neck that tense the neck and
pull that particular corner of my mouth
slightly down as in a frown.
I do know that none of the actions are
involuntary as I do clearly make them
happen, but it almost feels like
necessity. My wrists are also heavily
involved in the movements; I've had minor
tendonitis in both wrists from overworking
them lifting and toting palets when I was
fourteen. Every once in a while there is a
slight pain in my wrists, but it isn't
frequent at all. My back it usually tense,
my neck usually hurts and I can 'crack' it
several times a day from side to side.
I am frequently depressed. I don't work
out on a daily basis, but I do a lot of
physical activity daily, and try to work
out 2-3 times a week (light-medium
workout). I keep an eye on my diet and try
to stay away from some bad things that I
know I don't need.
I am 21 years old, 6'2", 200 lbs., medium
build, low body fat.
Please help me solve this problem. It
plagues me daily, actually more frequently
that that. On a humorous note, I'm sick of
replacing computer mice.
