Apparently humans go through two major aging events, 40’s and 60s.
I think I just recently went thru the one for my 40s. The last two years my fingers just get stiff and hurt. I have to use no pillows (or one very very thin one) I need a stupidly soft bed (I’m a side sleeper), and was diagnosed with sleep apnea two years ago.
Like others said, welcome to getting older.
Might be time to start doing yoga/pilates/martial arts stretches. I've entered one of these aging periods myself and yeah, sometimes I wake up absolutely bodied. But when I remember to do that physical stuff (reverse planks saved my lower back) it tends to settle down and things feel okay again. Reminds me, I've been slacking off. Probably gonna start feeling busted again soon.
I was gonna say that sleeping wrong has never caused any problems for me (except for the rare occasion where I pull my calf muscles but I suspect that is a different thing).
Would suck if I have to deal with this shit in the coming years. I am already not looking forward to the rest of my life lmao.
