I don't have flat feet. In fact, my feet are structurally normal. For some reason, though, whenever I stand for more than two or three hours, the relatively mild soreness of my feet seems to take over, eventually causing a meltdown. When I held jobs where you had to stand for eight hours, I had no energy to do anything else the rest of the day. I usually spent it lying on my bed, missed dinner and breakfast, and felt just better enough to go to work again the next day. Living hell. I have no idea why sore feet should torture me so much--the pain itself isn't even very severe. It's just like everybody else seems to block it out, but it takes up all my brain space.

Nope because I did NJROTC for four years in high school and my feet never hurt from military drill.

No, I have fairly high arches. Only shoes I found that fit my feet perfectly are Birkenstocks. Not diagnosed, but I'd bet my life that I have Aspergers.

Yeah.

They look normal, until I walk, then the arch just breaks down. I also have webbed toes on both feet (the first two toes other than the big one).

They're supposedly "bad" (that's what the foot doctor said anyway), but I've never had any problems with them, other than some barely noticeable pains if I walk several kilometres.

I had to look it up, and I'm gonna say I don't have them.

I put no, because structurally I have high arches. But functionally, I have flat feet. My arches completely collapse.

How could somebody not be either one? What else is there?

No, I've always gone barefoot or worn pretty flexible, non-toe-squishing shoes, so my feet are pretty healthy.
