Every time I see writing advice like 'remember to stretch your wrists!' I remember the horror my physiotherapist had when he learned I was stretching my wrists before writing but also had chronic nerve pain.
Now this is important. It's nerve pain. He stared at me and then said: Stop stretching.
I stared at him in shock and he said: Muscular pain is different from nerve pain. Stop stretching. Nerves don't respond to stretching like muscles do, it's two totally different treatments. Don't believe me? Stop stretching until our next session and tell me how you go.
And folks I've been free from nerve pain in my wrists ever since. After about a decade. And that's 2 straight years now. 2 years.
I still get muscular pain, which I stretch when that comes up and only when it comes up. But the specific pain I had from ulnar nerve impingement in both hands completely vanished. I was unknowingly making it worse because I thought stretching the nerves was the same as stretching the muscles, and thought the answer applied to everything.
(Tl;dr everyone is different. My physiotherapist is studying to become a medical doctor and will quit out of the field soon, but I always appreciated that everything he told me was solidly backed up with peer-reviewed studies and never came out of nowhere. Also his 'try it for a month and see' was so much better than 'I know I'm right' - because it left a door open for the people who realise what they thought was nerve pain was probably muscular in origin).
#personal#nerve pain vs. muscle pain#different treatments for different things#any writing advice telling you to stretch your wrists#CANNOT be applied universally#until you know exactly what's causing your pain#and friends if it's carpal tunnel or guyon's canal or ulnar nerve#the best treatment is actually resting your wrists#and not stretching#if the stretching is helping chances are there's muscular stuff going on too#anyway i'm not a doctor#but it's worth trying salkfjdsa#also i'm allowed to do other stretching#i just had to unpack the myth that stretching relieves nerves#the same way it relieves muscles/tendons

They are serving alright

#they really made me do a full render after the universe knows how long huh#I couldn’t help it. I saw those outfits and went crazy because my first thought was OH ITS THEM#Because I can no longer look at anything with any remote resemblance OR ANY AT ALL without me relating it to them#this took me. so fucking long.#both my wrist and fingers are dying but look at how pretty they look#it was very worth the all nighter and the pain#also graphic design is my passion or whatever#but that doesn’t matter. just look at them. oh how I love these two SO MUCH UEEEGHHH#trigun in where everything is the same but the fights are like in Zoolander#just thinking#trigun#vash the stampede#nicholas d wolfwood#trigun stampede#trigun fanart#wolfwood#vash#nicholas trigun#vashwood#trigun 2023#I think it’s important for you guys to know that I never decide on one color sample for them ever so that’s why they may look different#on each drawing I do.#also wolfwood in my mind is all of his iterations made into a soup. and so is Vash but WW is my most notorious victim#because this is supposed to be 23 WW. supposed to be.#lenssi draws#eyestrain

Hey, y'all! 🖤
Here's a black and white version of the banner! I actually did most of the drawing in black and white, and then I added color towards the end to get the edges and details right.
And here's a video of the process! I like to take a screenshot of my progress when I'm done working on my drawing for the day, and I turned these into a video.
What do you think? Do you like seeing different versions and progress videos of my work? Let me know 😊🖤
Link to the original banner here:
#malec#magnus bane#alec lightwood#shadowhunters#malec discord server#fan art#rainbow#pride month#digital art#digital drawing#matthew daddario#harry shum jr#my art#their hair alone took an entire week to do and I wanted to pull out my own hair by the end of it 🙃#I am pain. my hand my wrist my shoulders everything hurts#drawing kissing is the WORST it's so fucking hard to get it to look like lips mushing together jfc#black and white#video#that's 2 1/2 weeks worth of progressed condensed into 13 seconds

Might fuck around and write something where Steve breaks his wrist and gets sad because his parents don’t change their plans to stay and take care of him the very next morning
and his mom calls after some wine tastings to say she wished she could’ve stayed home and taken care of her little boy instead
when it’s not like anyone was holding a gd gun to her head
#scoops words#scoops scoop#projecting onto steve harrington because my wrist hurts and i’m sad#also the day before i fell my dad finally noticed my hair and joked that it’s a combover#i am a 36 year old woman but i am on high test pain meds rn#they booked the tastings to spend time with us while we’re in the state but went alone anyway to stay overnight#while i mope around their house with my partner and our dogs#my dad is an ass but my mommy took me to the ER and idk i thought maybe i’d be worth changing plans for

going through another round of "what if i got a cane would my life be easier with a cane should i get a cane" hmmmm
#ctxt#chronic blogging#i'd probably hold off until i'm further into treatment to see if it improves things enough to remove the (maybe??) need#but a lil extra support sure would be nice#i don't really have trouble walking usually. occasionallygetting up from sitting is hard#mainly it just FUCKING HURTS standing still for longer than a couple minutes#and flamingoing it to put all my weight on one foot isn't very comfortable either#i feel like it would increase comfort a lot to be able to distribute my weight more evenly between my good side & a cane#but i'm not sure if it would make enough of a difference to be worth lugging a cane around and having it be in the way when not in use#i would want something made of lightweight wood and with enough of a curve to the handle that i could hook it over my elbow#to keep it outta the way. or get one of those wrist straps#idk my mobility isn't really limited but i am in a lot of pain frequently and standing without something to lean on makes it a lot worse#cane users please feel free to weigh in

I use my thumb to draw on phone so everytime im done with a piece slightly more detailed than usual, it looks like this
#this is why 99% of my arts are sketches#if i draw longer than 2 hours a day my thumb and my wrist will fall out#when i drew for the tgpairup event my arm was full of pain relief patches dhdkkd#worth it

washing some of my crocheted stuff for the first time and im Incredibly Nervous about it. what if they come undone. what if i lose my beloved soup coaster...
#id make a new one but it wouldnt be The Same#and i dont exactly have the uh#wrappers? LABELS!#the labels to see if theyre machine washable. i think they are?#i hope i didnt just fuck up the colors of that whole load!#well even if i did im sure i can find a way to make it work#but still im more worried that my coasters will unravel#i wove in the ends verrryyyyy securely but the Fear is still there#i dread the day i wash my arm sleeve things#they took so long to make.... many hours and much hand/wrist pain#worth it tho! gonna go to michaels soon to find softer yarn & make a new pair#i hope they have some good pinks!#absolutely unprompted#hyperaware of the sound of the washing machine rn#im imagining that the coasters are having a good time in there but like. if it kills them...#at least theyd die having fun#and id have extra long scrap yarn to work with#it would join its friends in the Lemon Bag
