Hi everyone, so this feeling is something I've started experiencing recently (about 5 months) but it's been constant and annoying. It's hard to describe the feeling but I'm gonna try and if anyone has had a similar experience and would like to share, please do, I could use the help!

**The feeling:** I use the word tightness because it's the only way I can think to describe it but it's *not* like the tightness from a panic attack. 

The main thing is, my upper back, shoulders and neck always feel tight and tense. Almost like a soreness after a workout. This especially happens when I sit upright with good posture, as if my back muscles aren't strong enough and they get tired. I don't think this is the case though because nothing changes when I slouch. Additionally, when I do slouch, I feel a pressure right below my sternum near the top of my belly, I also describe this as a tightness. 

I'm not asking for a diagnosis or anything, just want to know if anyone has tips to help with this horrible, nagging feeling?
