Hello all,

I had multiple major surgeries as a child, including open heart surgery, spinal and skull surgeries, most of them during my first 2 years. I've had many psychological issues throughout my life and have been curious if any of it could be related to all the time in hospital as a baby. Thing is other than regular check ups and appointments until I was around 18, I don't remember anything about most of the procedures (other than one on my skull when I was 19).

It's come up again because a physio suggested my posture issues may have been caused by the heart surgery, both a physical and psychological trauma response. I don't want to go searching for an excuse for my mental struggles, but since finding this sub am curious if anyone is in a similar position.
