Desk Chair Hell

My desk chair has been annoying me for a long time now, but I put up with it because I generally didn't spend much time sitting in it. That changed after I got two monitors and a docking station for my laptop. Not only am I working from home one day a week for my day job, but now I'm writing in my office, too. The chair's shortcomings have become more and more unbearable. So has the neck, back, and hip pain.

This is not a cheap chair. I spent a lot of money on it at an office surplus company. They charged 50% of what the chair cost new, so the price tag was astronomical for the first owner. I know now why they got rid of it when it was almost brand new and in perfect shape. Clearly, they'd been sitting in it all day.

After a little bit of research, I decided to get a gaming chair. They are designed for long sitting sessions and that's what I need--something that will let me sit and write for long stretches of time. I'm not sure which particular chair I'm going to get, not yet, but the idea of not hobbling when I stand up is vastly appealing.

I really hope this is my answer.
