Errg...

When I start working on something, I like to burrow in and get totally absorbed and not come out for hours. Which is a problem when I really shouldn't draw for more than 45 minutes or so at a time. And when I say "at a time," I don't mean "take a 15 minute break and come back to it." I mean, "put it away and maybe - maybe - take it back out tomorrow, provided you haven't done anything else to fuck your wrists." That would be the ideal, anyway. Except that I'm obsessive, and have a hard time letting things be.

Not much to do except deal as best I can. (Maybe I'm not allowed to draw anymore. I can only paint. Somehow without any underdrawing.)

*hugs on you*

I am not sure what ails you but I too have issues with my wrists, as a fellow artist and writer I cry with you in frustration.

*hugs* I'm not sure what exactly the problem is, either, which doesn't really help in fixing it -_-. I just know the triggers.

*hugs you again*

I know my triggers seem to be anything I really enjoy doing (typing, writing, drawing cooking...ugh) I hope you find out what the problem is soon so you can work toward a solution! ^_^

Yeah, that about covers it for me, too ^^;. Along with knitting and sewing. Being tense seems to make it worse, so I'm training myself to relax. I have braces I wear for many activities.
Oddly enough, some kinds of yard work seems to help.
