I'm unable to draw and have been for the last 3 weeks, I was waiting to see if there were any improvements after trying new braces and other ways people in my server suggested me but I can't draw.
I'm suffering from severe joints pain, especially the wrists, and due to my mom, grandmother and great-grandmother all have Sjogren's syndrome, I'm starting to worry that I will end up developing it too. (it's a rare chronic autoimmune disease, it dries up your whole body starting with joints and then organs, my grandma has it at an advanced stage and....it's painful guys. She can barely move, her lungs are drying out. And there's no known cure)
It's scary knowing that I may eventually end up having to give up on creating, it's what I love the most, it's my life. But I'm not giving up just yet. I'll keep on taking care of myself ---using braces, doing joint exercizes, cbd, supplements, anything that can help.
Right now the most I can draw is 1h a day, sometimes just 30 minutes, sometimes nothing at all because it hurts so much I can't even do basic things like opening doors or hold an item for more than a few seconds. When I do draw, I'm just frustrated because I'm unable to keep my lines straight and clean. It's all so incredibly frsutrating, not even being able to function properly, sometimes I need to wait for my brother to be home because otherwise I can't even cook or hold a broom and I feel so useless. I already suffer from anxiety, depression and adhd and I'm spiralling so bad these weeks, there are days I wanna do nothing but cry
I'm hooping that by announcing an official hiatus I will worry less about having to draw and feeling guilty about not doing it, and actually focus on getting better. I'm so sorry to those who are waiting on art from me, I truly am, but I'm seriously unable to draw right now, and even if try, as said above it's absolutely not at a good quality. And if by miracle I manage to get something done, I need to focus on getting the rewards done for my kofi/patreon first, because I must get those delivered by the end of the month (I'm honestly not even sure how i'll manage this month, I may to resort to things like releasing sketch packs as rewards instead, idk)
This is already long enough and it honestly took a lot of time and effort just to type this so tldr; my wrists/joints are fucked, I can't draw, I have to be on hiatus until furter notice. i'm so sorry.

I hope things go well Des and you have a supportive and helpful doctor.
We'll keep the lights on for you.
