Work desk won’t help you with that. You would need a nice office chair. Two popular ones are Herman miller and steelcase but they are pricey. Personal experience: I used a cheap chair that I bought from Amazon, and given I work a lot and sit for extended period of times it caused a lot of lower back pains. I invested in steelcase and it was well worth it. There are a plenty other brands but I don’t have any experience in them. See if you can try out by visiting authorized dealers and/or look at used ones.

As of late, my work related anxiety has reached new levels and it’s really starting to affect me mentally.

I realize there are much larger problems right now, but if anyone has any tips or advice to get over this, I am all ears. Thanks all!

And then there’s the whole dopamine addiction issue with doing a small amount of work then hopping on social media because you feel like you need the reward. Just me?
