Show me your cock and I'll show you some advice on keeping your back nice and perpendicular.

Back injury is nasty stuff, very serious indeed, but the body can and does heal it. What often happens is people feel better then go on to re-injure the same injury site, and repeat the cycle, over and over, sometimes for decades.
If it is disk slippage, the body sees that, then swells up the tissue in that area to push the disk back into place, and then swelling declines once everything is realigned. That usually takes at least three rather painful days. The swelling will not decline until the disk is properly realigned. Swelling puts pressure on the spinal cord, which can feel like pain from almost anywhere in your body, as nerves from elsewhere are passing through the region that is under pressure. For example, your feet can hurt, even when they are completely fine. Burning sensations, tingling, itching, stabbing pains, etc, are all indicators of swelling at the injury site.
You can sometimes speed this realignment process with a helper. Lay flat on the floor, on your back, with both legs straight in the air. Then, while keeping your belly flat, relax your back with your helper slowly pulling your feet back toward your head. It can take several minutes for the tendons in your spinal cord to relax and let go, but eventually your spine will relax and it will lengthen, like in any other stretch, giving an opportunity for a slipped disk to slip back into place. If that works you will receive immediate pain relief. Think like a dislocated shoulder. Same principle at work here.
Good luck. Back pain is fucked, and it really fucks with your life. Get better, and get your life back.
I recommend swimming as your best exercise while you are healing, to strengthen your back with minimal gravity pressure on the spine. After you get better, add walking to the mix. Walking is nature's best method for strengthening your skeletal structure, by literally pounding and cracking the bones, with your body repairing and rebuilding them every night with fresh calcium. If you can put in a couple of miles a day for two months, your back should be in pretty good shape.
I would not do any further lifting for a while. You want the opposite of that, aka, not lifting.

People arch their backs benching all the time and their fine 99.9% of the time. I need to start working out and I wish I could thank everyone from voat for all the encouragement they gave me to quit smoking cigarettes which I did :) and quit drinking. Next diet and work out constantly.

He's saying he did the opposite; he tried to keep it flat. You should arch your back as well as curl your legs in and push them into the ground if you are going flat max bench. I keep it flat only for secondary chest exercises as they are more isolation and less weight.
Congrats on quitting. I keep falling back into drinking after a few months of cleanliness. I got some cognac to go with my cigars and drank the whole bottle in one night dammit.

I don't lift. Guess what? My back is perfect. Never even gives me a twinge. Take care of your body, and your body will take care of you.

NEVER SKIP LEG DAY.
You are trying to push too hard and you are hurting yourself. If you can't keep proper form you're doing it wrong. Reduce weight and do it correctly. Nobody gives a fuck if you can bench 100 or 300 and if you're doing it wrong just to try and get a number you're going to continue to hurt yourself. It's a marathon not a sprint.

Never skip leg day? I love leg day. I’m not gonna go in and squat with my back killing me like this though. I wasn’t benching a lot of weight. That’s the thing. I just forced my back to stay flat on the bench. Apparently that’s a bad idea. That’s all I can think did it. Cause right after that my back was hurting and just got worse.

Where does it hurt? How much were you lifting bud? You shouldn't have to force your back flat if it's not too much you want the power to come from pecs and triceps isolated. May have just been a weird tweak

My lower back hurts. If hurts to get out of bed. It hurts to sit in a chair. It’s not just a little bit injured it’s fucked it

Hopefully you just threw it out.
I threw mine out last year. I could barely put my pants on in the morning and it took a few weeks to get better. Then I fucking threw it out again as soon as I started lifting again. All better now but I REALLY needed to back off for a good while.

A few weeks? Jesus. I want it to be better now. I don’t wanna miss workouts. This is bullshit

Yeah that's what I said and I made it last twice as long as it needed to be.
