I began obsessing a few years ago about my childhood extractive orthontia, where they pulled out four perfectly good teeth and pushed my whole mouth in to correct a harmless overbite. It gave me sleep apnea; if I fall asleep on my back, my throat basically collapses, I snore loudly and wake up.

So since I started obsessing about it, my jaw and neck have gone into rigid overtime, and my neck is cracking.

You have taught me a lesson. I watch tv and think “those celebrities don’t have my problems” and now here you are talking about your stiff neck. It doesn’t make me feel any better, just makes me realize we’re all in more or less the same boat as humans.

I wish the orthodontists had left me alone when I was a kid. Today, I’d have a cute overbite, and I”d be able to sleep like a baby on my back.

Anyway, I’ve been a long time on and off fan. I’m glad I came back.
