It states that scoliosis is 1/3 genetic and 2/3 environmental... it isn't passed directly down from your parents. Isn't what i described about my situation exactly these environmental factors that played a role in my scoliosis? Having had underweight and maybe poor nutrition, bad sitting positions and maybe lack of minerals... isn't this ultimately what got me my 20° S curve scoliosis? I understand that noone knows where it's from. But it can't be 100% out of control for people to get scoliosis. (Im talking about the adolescent idiopathic ones) surely a child scoliosis is not anyones fault and it will unfortunately get worse until the child develops a rather bad case of scoliosis.
But for me it was detected when i was 19 years old. My back was normal in older pictures... isn't the hunger that i had, and the extreme anxiety coupled with the angry refusal to eat something in the past, the cause of my scoliosis?
By the way lets talk about this. Back then i was in a school that i really hated with annoying noisy people and i was also bullied by one person.. i think they even stole the lamp of my bicycle once lol. I dont really care about that. I had the full range of anxiety and my stomach felt sick all the time. My mouth was dry and i had a bad taste so i couldnt eat anything. Soon all this moved to after school life. My mind was racing all the time and i became angry. So... i decided not to eat anything even though i was hungry when coming home.. soon i became so thin that i had underweight of only 55 kg and i could hardly eat. There were a few times when i ate at home and i couldnt. My mom forced me to eat and then i suddenly puked because i was full. Hungry but full. It didnt work. And my parents also shouted at me for puking and for some of my bad grades...
Later i got sent to mental hospital and now i take olanzapin and sertralin. They said i had indifferent schizophrenia, asperger and psychosis. I had a weight gain once 10 kg in a week and now my weight is totally normal. And the new school is still uncomfortable but i get sort of good grades and it works... but that damn scoliosos!! I think it's my fault. I should have eaten something! Instead i decided to lay in bed all the time and listen to music... im so stupid.

Hi All.... It's great to see all of the new people joining the site... I'm loving it!!...smileI'm not sure if people are aware that if you don't have Bipolar Disorder but have a loved one who has the disorder we do have a board for people to go to in order to share their experiences and seek friendship, support or adviseIt's the Friends and Family of Bipolar Board.... I hope you'll take a...
I am curious, however, about why you want to blame yourself for this condition? If they can "prove" that you are responsible for your condition, how would that change your response to it? And if they could "prove" that you were not responsible for your condition, what would that mean to you?

He's seen Dr.'s, many of them, and they've all told him the same thing, the only thing one can be told of Scoliosis, there is no definitive test that proves what causes it, it doesn't exist at this point in Medical Research.
This is roughly the 10th plus time he's posted this same question on multiple forums. Between his OCD and his Anxiety and Depression there is no satisfying him with answers. You can't give him what he wants as it does not exist. And if someone is stupid enough to agree with him, just for the hell of it, well he's said what he'll do..
