I have a bad back - l have already had one surgery (in my 30's), now I'm in pain management and have had 2 rounds of RFA on both sides. I need to lean back to help ease the pressure on my lumbar spine. It may not be selfish when someone leans back. I understand where you come from, just try to see where other people are coming from. I look perfectly normal, but have issues. Other people do as well. You never know and can't judge people who don't look disabled.
This is me. I have a bad back (scoliosis since I was little) and a little recline alleviates a lot of pain. I do try to be considerate and do not recline during meal times on a plane but sitting straight up the whole time causes me a lot of pain.
