Unfortunately for some people with mobility issues, problems being upright () mean they can't use traditional or if they do, they can't be upright for long. This looks a interesting idea!

Not sure the context!

Question for anyone with POTS or general orthostatic intolerance and who still uses a computer for relatively long periods (for job / studies / hobbies): what is your favourite chair design for working at a computer (laptop)?

A photo would be ideal, but description would be very useful too.

I have a regular upright chair right now and use a regular desk, no adaptations. But I sometimes feel like I can’t support myself well in upright positions when my chronic illness is kicking my butt. Of course, if brain fog also hits then I just rest and don’t use a computer and sit at a desk, but I’m often in between that. Would be nice to have a supportive chair for both upright positions when I’m doing well and for when upright is too… ummm… upright?! 😆 But also important to make sure I don’t hurt my neck if reclining and then straining to see a screen while simultaneously use a keyboard and mouse. I truly can’t think of a solution right now and if one exists?

Any ideas and boosts appreciated. 💗
