Sometimes I feel like programming is physically and mentally designed to create bad health and mood, at least if you’re not very careful about how you’re _being_ while doing it.

Maybe it’s just me, but I have to work hard to avoid:

- Bad posture, hunching towards the monitor

- Scrunching the face

- Feeling impatient because my fingers and the computer can’t keep up with where I am in my mind

- “Damn you, computer!” frustration in small doses throughout

- Frequent interruptions via email, Slack, texts, coworkers, etc

- In some cultures, it’s very hard to have a plan for what to get done in the day and then execute on it due to getting sucked into meetings and stuff.

Ya I’m really interested in what I do and side projects I work on but I feel like absolute shit after focusing on either. Not sure how to solve this. it feels unsustainable to find equal amounts of joy(?) and ~bad feelings physically and mentally~ from partaking.
