Pay particular attention to the layout of desks etc (ergonomics) – and one thing (which may be the main thing) are you taking enough breaks?
the layout things a pain. a friend who is disabled has a crazy multi-position, £700 chair, with an integal mouse mat inthe arm and vertical mouse (used one? theyre amazing) and that is joy to use, but he only afforded it on a grant. seems a bit silly as these things affect us all. but its good that he does get it.
as for breaks, i hear you, i try to go walk round the house, do some art, make food whatever but it easy to push yourself. the official recommendation is five minute every two hours, but that is clearly done by a bastard employer. i try and get up every half hour. doesnt always work out like thattho.
i really exasperated my back troubles once when i was round a mates house and was working on a cgi project with him for a week. i was working 24 hour stints, tanked up on pain killers. fucking stupid idea, messed me up for a while. never again.

you also recently mentioned giving up cannabis; which may have blotted out symptoms that were always there.
this i think i very true, a lot of other psychological things are surfacing, and im beggining to ralise i wasnt just smoking to have fun, i was hiding from some shit. a common complaint. still, im looking forward to getting my dreams back- havent dreamt for a loooooooong time, and i remember them being well fun.
my bike is well adjusted, deffo, cheers for the advice tho.
i will have to go down gp for a more indepth perception, plus i think some physio will help – it sorted my back along with yoga. a friend of mine also swears by taichi.
