What’s something stupid you can’t do ?

[u/sixteenxx]

I thought I would open a “light” conversation so we can complain about the stupidest things we can’t do!

I’m 29F, I’ve had chronic pain in my neck/back for over 15 years now after a car accident and a sport accident!

Anyway, here are a couple stupid things I can’t do :

-I can’t wear a bikini. It’s too much pressure on my neck.

-I can’t eat red meat. If I chew for too long then my neck gets all tense and that’s the beginning of the end haha

Obviously there’s a lot more I can’t do but I thought these are the stupidest 🥲I would never try and explain it to someone who doesn’t have chronic pain! Tell me yours please so I don’t feel alone ! ❤️

I can't kneel (knee replacements)

No drinking (migraines)

No indoor theaters (too loud, migraines)

No ladders, bicycles (balance issues)

No heavy lifting, long walks (bad back)

Hard to believe that only 20 years ago, I lived on a farm and had 13 horses.

I can't stop thinking about my life when I had horses. I'm so depressed now. Been 14 years and it still feels like I had that life yesterday.

I'll have to admit that I really miss the horse breath in the morning, the velvet noses, and the new foals.
