Yes, I have that bullshit also. I had to wear one of those fuking backbraces at ages 12-15. So---------I am used to being made fun of and being apublic spectacle--so walking around with these gloves and shit doesnt bother me. No wonder im fuking crazy.
My back however is in pretty good shape, not hunched over and shit. If I hadn't worn the brace that's what would've happened. So.......I hda to drop out of football and become an outcast basically, but things turned around by the time I was a senior as I had lots of friends and could hold my own in the gym.
I know firsthand how cruel people can be.
