    My complete recovery from RSI, or, how I learned to stop worrying and love my hands

    Thank you, Moose, for sharing your success story! This is exactly the kind of success story I've been waiting for to appear, because I'm studying Japanese language and culture at university level, and to get my bachelor (plus a year of pure language study), I have to keep using the computer a...

    Question for people with hand and/or arm pain ("RSI")

    Have or did any of you progress to the point where the hands shake like crazy after using the computer or whatever your trouble was? Recently, after using the computer or phone for a while, my hands, aside from getting more painful, also shake quite a bit, as if the muscles are dead exhausted...

    Hand and arm pain strategies ("rsi")

    Yes, when I feel pain, I sometimes focus on it a little bit and tell it/myself it doesn't matter, it's safe, etc, instead of shoving it away in fear. Also, I do a 10-minute meditation every morning where I observe the pain and/or feelings in the body (pretty much always fear in the stomach...

    Hand and arm pain strategies ("rsi")

    Hi, everyone.

    Full RSI Recovery - a story typed from a laptop on the couch

    Thanks, I hope so! No, I haven't tried that, as there are none in Norway as far as I know. I guess I'll just have to work more consistently with my issues.

    Full RSI Recovery - a story typed from a laptop on the couch

    That is amazing to hear! I've been struggling with RSI for almost 3 years now, and it has become worse and worse. I have moments where I will believe I have TMS, just to fear the computer shortly afterwards. I think my biggest problem is that I haven't really settled one just one strategy to get...

    Ah, is this not happiness..

    If you like dogs or cats, I found this Japanese video that within the first 20 minutes features so much cuteness it doesn't even matter if you don't understand Japanese at all. The video is almost 2 hours long, so I don't know what happens later, but I intend to find out, lol. I actually got...
