    Over the weekend I sat in my chair a lot. It seems like sitting for long periods of time hurts it. However today, Sunday, my back basically didn't hurt until an hour ago when it got slightly achy. I believe it is because school is on Monday so I'm afraid of being distracted at school because of sitting and my back hurting. I have not tried to exercise yet. I have been doing yoga. I feel like its okay to do yoga since it is something I want to do anyways, not just to heal my back. Some days it seems like it helps, some days not which definitely makes me think its TMS.

    TMS is just so god damn annoying. However I think I am lucky in that I have already cured hand pain with it, curing my back pain will be a lot easier. I have definitely been very depressed and stressed out recently, not by school but by the rest of my life. I just need to chill out really. I'm trying my best. I just have a bad mind really, I'm just cynical, self-loathing, restless, unmotivated. Avoiding alcohol seems to help, basically discipline helps, avoiding binge eating, stuff like that. The more my mind is at peace the better my TMS symptoms will be.
