In my opinion, some of your comparisons are a bit off. For example, I'd say there's a significant difference between D&D, arcades yada yada as these were generally social activities, where as you stated phone access can be completed from the comfort of their couch.
I anticipate there will inevitably be a large increase in vision impairments, neck/ upper back pain, likely social isolation and obviously reduced attention spans.

Let's be frank, no country is pulling away from China. Especially when we sell so much of our buildy dirt.

That sucks man. Unfortunately pain is a complex beast with no easy fixes. I hope you can find a solution that gives you a better quality of life.

Do they have any persistent pain clinics where you're from?
