Wow you pulled the words right out of my brain, especially with the only feeling relaxed when I’m sleeping. I have found that maintaining really good posture has really helped with my chronic pain, but that also means even when I am just sitting or laying down I’m using a large amount of brain power to keep my spine aligned and core engaged. I had a panic attack the other day because I was mad at myself for watching tv in a weird position for less than an hour, scared that it was going to set my entire health progress back a while.
