My back hurts

For those who know me, I wear a crystal bracelet on my right hand which was supposed to ward off my longstanding problem of back pain. About a month ago, the string that binds the crystals together snapped and since then I have not been able to find a place to mend it.

Starting a few days ago, my back started to hurt again. There isn't much of a change since the bracelet broke but I can sense the pain building up from day to day. To my knowledge, lack of sleep do not contribute to back pain and I don't really slouch so I don't think I strain my back in any manner which is apart from norm.

However, there is a saying called, "Bend over backwards" and I think I have been forced into many situations whereby I was to ensure that a very difficult task is to be completed. Although figuratively, I am straining my back in that manner but it just don't make any sense for the physical pain. Stress buildup usually resides at the neck and my neck has been tight for quite a while.

My observation over the years tells me that if my back hurts in a particular way, I will fall sick for a couple of days. But this time its different from that kind of pain and I don't wish to get sick now. Anyways, now I am 得閒死唔得閒病 ... We still do not have enough staff to help out with all the workload and to make it worst, intake has been frozen because the company do not have anymore budget for new staff =_="

Perhaps its a psychological effect after I have lost my bracelet. If this is really the case then the power of suggestion is strong in me. Well the bracelet also calms me because when I need to think, I will play with it. Sigh ...

Could it be the weather? Shit, Im getting old and I can predict the weather now???
