Is scoliosis my fault?

Hello, at 19 years I have been diagnosed with a mild 20° S curve scoliosis and I think it's my fault...

From 16 to 19 years I had underweight with 55 kg (I'm male) due to anxiety and psychosis and I also had bad posture. I was sitting incorrectly in front of the pc at home and in school for many hours a day. And maybe I had a lack of vitamins and poor nutrition, although the blood tests did not show that. There were also 4 or 5 unconsecutive days when I did not eat anything at all during that day. I even refused to eat at home out of anger.

At 20 years my weight was normal again and I am 21 years old now. But I worry about my 20° S curve scoliosis. Is this all my fault? If I had eaten more back then, and if I had not adopted bad sitting positions, then maybe I would have no scoliosis?

I want to know: is scoliosis my fault? Did I cause or worsen scoliosis? Maybe I only had 5° and through my actions I worsened it up to 20° ? Thinking that it's my fault makes me very anxious, nervous and unhappy. I want to know this because I have no motivation to do anything good for myself, thinking scoliosis was my fault... It bothers me very much and it makes me angry and nervous at the same time. Thanks for reading.
