Wrist Pain and Trying to Adjust

- An important video. A lot of changes. Wish I had more to say but this is all I have for now. It's not a goodbye, mind you. Not at all. Just a... considerably huge bump in the road.
If you wanna help make videos happen sooner, / piemations
There's that, and SUPER appreciated. And for a little extra context, Patreon funds are indeed ONLY for making videos, not for me, and if there's nothing to use it for at the moment, it is saved in a dedicated bank account until it has a video to be used on. That's how the FNaF video could be afforded and a number of previous videos. This is probably how Here in the Village will be made too

Repetitive strain injuries are a serious thing to be wary of, folks. Take care of yourselves, and if you ever feel an RSI developing in your wrists/arms, don't ignore it. Pull back from what's causing the pain immediately. Take care, Piemations :< Your cartoons are amazing, but your health is more important.
ok
you right man

I wish we were taught better as artists about what to do to avoid health problems down the line. I thought I was invincible against the back, wrist, head pain until I got older. Now it ****ing sucks. Especially when drawing/entertainment is your job and not something you do just for fun.
That said, animating anything for Piemations is seriously such an honor. The comedy is just so good, and Mike is legit amazing to work with. ⭐
god bless you crowne prince, honestly. one of the best
agreed
Sadly, that kind of stuff scares people away, even if it is caring for what makes you money
He has a skill issue
Lmao cope with it
Rip Sheriff Heyseed. You were too beautiful for this world
Which really sucks. It would’ve been great.
@@Ag3nt-MC i mean whats stopping us fans from continuing the series?
POV furry 😂

It has been an honor and a pleasure to work with you over these years, Mike. Getting to be the voice of Todd Hayseed as part of your Sheriff Hayseed animated series has been so much fun. I'm terribly sad to see that it's finally coming to an end though I'll always pride myself on what we managed to accomplish together. Without you, I doubt I ever would have made it as far along as I have, having you as a friend has been great, and I hope there comes a time again when you're able to make more leaps and bounds with your work. When that time comes I'll be happy to offer my voice to you again as I always have. Thank you and good luck with recovery!
You're still gonna work with him tho right
@@idkany293Hopefully, but don’t bank on it, or you’ll just end up disappointed.
@@idkany293 On what?
@@150booyadragon anything
This is heartbreaking considering this was one of his best show and you killed it as Todd
Take a break, man! Trust me, art isn't fun when it chips at you. We'll still be here! Stay safe, Mike
Agreed
that's the way art based work is
For sure

Sad to hear that the Todd Hayseed project is being cancelled but I’m really glad that you’re taking care of yourself Mike as it’s more important than anything. We wish you the best on having a successful recovery.
Someone insane needs to give him and his team an inordinate amount of money, just so we get to see the ideas fully flourish, with the hiring of a full art and animation team for the project
Ain't gonna be me tho, I'm broke as shiy
People only got one body, gotta take care of it and not abuse it to make it last for 80 or so years. Good on Mike for seeing that soon enough.
NOOOOOOOOO not sherif hayseed!!!! it was a good cartoon!!!😭
Rest In Peace Sheriff Hayseed, but more importantly, rest... Rest! Give yourself time to heal and rebuild your strength!
Sheriff Hayseed is the one I really wanted to see, since that had so much potential. Sad to see it go, but would really love if you had a team finish that episode at some point, even if you can't continue the series.
Same.
Get better man! Your health matters more and I’m sure you’ll find a way to still entertain us in any way you can!
@@______Pomni______Prove it by making good videos
@@______Pomni______ Says the one with only 1000 subscribers, maybe actually have evidence to back up your claim before making a stupid statement
@@______Pomni______ Yeah yeah keep on dreaming, it ain’t gonna get you anywhere
@@______Pomni______ but ur channel have no story like piemation's
just report them for spam, dont respond
I’m sad to hear Hayseed is scrapped, and Mike and Zach is finished, but I’m glad to hear you’re recovering. We’ll be waiting very excitedly for your next upload, whatever it may be.
Sad to hear that sheriff Todd Hayseed was canceled but I hope you feel better eventually. You’re honestly me and many of my friends favorite animator on this platform so thank you for everything you’ve done and everything you will do.
As someone who is rehabilitating my legs I understand that you’re going to need to accommodate for yourself. Thank you to you and your team with everything you have already put out. I often binge your entire channel when I get depressed and you’ve got plenty of content.
Real fans will be patient and love your work either way. Thank you to you and your team for being a core piece in my child and adulthood!
Really, really bummed about Sherrif Hayseed being scrapped, but this is as legit and understandable a reason as any. Take care of yourself dude, and we all look forward to what you release in the future, whenever that may be. Your health comes first!
Same, hope he gets better☺
aye
Dude, you could take the next 20 years to post and I'd never stop saying you are still currently one of the best animators ever. Take all the time u need.
Seconded, I am obsessed with your current videos and I'll happily rewatch them for a few years if you focus fully on your health in the mean time :D
Thirdee, I would accept Piemations to take a century break, but I *_will not die until he announces he is either making a new video, or stop making them entirely._*
You cannot escape me, Piemations.
*_I'm awaiting every second to give you those precious views._*
I'm in my late 20s and I have hand/wrist problems that I've been told will persist my whole life and I just have to life with it. As an artist and a crafter, I understand how much of a bummer this is for the future.
I hope you recover well. One thing I learned was definitely work slower and take breaks or stop when you begin to feel pain again. Not being the speed you used to be definitely can suck, but it's something that can be managed and worked around! You just have to figure out what works for you!
It's good to hear though, that you don't plan on giving up! When you're ready, keep creating. Get better! ✌️✨️
Sucks to be human sometimes. You can’t just replace your hands when they wear out from so much animating. You sure have a lot to be proud of though. Those hands animated some of the best content on CZcams. Thank you for all you’ve done thus far. I hope you can continue your passion in the near or far future.
As someone who lives with chronic pain, I understand that it can be difficult to function as you did before you had it. I'm glad that you were willing to share your experience, and I sincerely pray that you will be able to regain the full use of your wrists with minimal issues.
Piemations is truly a man of focus, commitment and sheer feckin will fighting the wrist pain, wishing speedy recovery
He a little NPC, but he got the spirit
I once saw him draw three men in a convention… with a pencil. With a fuckin' pencil!!!
I feel this so much. I love to draw and tattoo as well, so the fact I broke my wrist twice, broke my hand and dislocated my wrist while needing 2 rods fused onto my ring fingers metacarpal, and I broke my knuckles many times WHILE having my fathers very advanced RA in my genes makes it a MIRACLE I can still hold a gun. I don't work on people anymore but I still practice on myself and my GF, she asks me too. I'll be praying for ya, and if you don't believe just know I mean well...
Holy fucking shit your hand must be hamburger meat now. Broke my hand as well but it wasnt my writing side
Hey I'm sorry this happened and I'm glad you'll still be making stuff somewhat which is great. I never actually thought of the Patreon but I will definitely be supporting you now as you are basically my favorite CZcamsr. You were my childhood, and I always enjoyed watching your content through the years. I'm glad you have been getting better and I hope you continue to give your wrists a bit of rest, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't glad you are still working on some stuff.
I am slightly sad Mike and Zach is basically gone but it feels like a good stopping point honestly.
I think the best way to keep Sheriff Hayseed going is to try and workshop it around with various animators/animation teams and see if someone want to help out with it. With the current rise in indie animation on youtube, I don't think it's unreasonable to hope that someone likes your ideas enough to want to help you make them come to fruition, especially since you've been around the animation scene for a long time and are well known.
I could see this going on if he did something like Digital Circus
It sounded like he was also complaining about the series conceptually, not just the strain on him. Essentially he has writers block on where to take the story and thus no outside animation team will really be able to help with that fact
Though the vision/clear plan for Piemations, the artstyles, and the way the team would work with new members is gonna be something to deal with.
It's done. Kaput. All the voice actors are fired. They won't work with him anymore or find any further work. They're essentially nobodies.
Yeah I would say the same too, it could have a chance of being picked up but unfortunatelly they thing they care most about is making gigantic numbers first. Heck Hazbin had to make an entire spin off series of 2 seasons before it was even aknowledged as a real series by amazon.
Though I will miss Hayseed quite a bit, I completely understand your reasoning. I just hope that you can bounce back from this stronger than ever. Much love, Mr. Piemations ❤
You have given us so much content on your channel, and we are all so grateful for your hardwork, but now it time for you to focus on yourself and your health. Thanks for being you.
Don't push yourself too hard Mike.
It is a bit of a bummer about all the cancelled projects, especially Sheriff Hayseed, but it's 100% okay.
Your health and recovery is way more important and you should just focus on getting better.
Wishing you a speedy recovery Mike🫶🏻rest easy💖
Sad to see Sheriff Hayseed go, but sometimes shit happens, hope you get better and somehow find some solution in the future
Your animations have been something truly part of my childhood. I loved all of them, I cant really say much here. Stay safe and healthy. Do what's best for you. We love you man, good luck.
I am really sorry to hear you're going through that. I have had enough struggles and therapy to understand what it feels like to lose, or be threatened with the loss of, a core part of yourself.
It's great that you're taking this in stride and working with what you have, moving forward is important.
Sad to hear about Sheriff Hayseed and that Halo 2 parody be scrapped, but I do hope you continue to recover. You are by far one of the best animators on CZcams, and we all wish you the best. Stay strong Mike, hope you get well soon!
Sorry you’ve been impacted so heavily by this - hope your recovery is on the quicker side! Sad to hear Hayseed is scrapped, but maybe it’ll come back one day…
Definitely take care of yourself before your work - it doesn’t exist without you!
If you haven’t already looked into such things, there are a number of alternative input devices to help prevent RSIs - vertical mice, trackballs, foot mice [yes really], tablets - switching up your input devices, using ones designed to better work with the anatomy of the hand/arm, and continuing physical therapy and exercises can all help you get back towards your previous pain without, y’know… destroying your wrists.
Hope you get relief soon!
I just heard about your wrist pain, and I wanted to send my best wishes for a speedy recovery. Your creativity brings so much joy, and your well-being is more important than any animation. Take the time you need to heal - we'll be here, eagerly awaiting your return. Sending positive vibes your way! Love you, Michael!
Thanks for all your content! Keep producing your animations, they rock!
Don’t worry dude, no matter what…..you’ll always be a legend in animation 👍
I think we're already used to waiting a long time for uploads, take as long as you need. We'll be here for you.
I don't care how long it takes for a new video to come out because the wait will be well worth it! Get better soon!!
Ive been here for years, patiently waiting for more of your content. Thank you for that.
Now ill keep waiting for whatever you do next. You'll always have a ln honorary place in my subscriptions.
Don't worry, nobody anticipates you push yourself beyond your limits. I can imagine the aggravating pain you must experience trying to use a computer or draw right now, & I hope you get better. Take as much time as you need, & return when you feel 110%!
You should definitely go for a team effort for the Hayseed animation! Having you do all of that work alone is relatively dangerous for your wrists, especially so young! Don't ignore it. Please take care of yourself!!
Every time we've had the opportunity to hang out it's always super fun, and I'm happy to hear you're putting your health first. Good luck for the future, and I wish the best!!! 💕💕💕💕
Just glad to hear you're ( for the most part ) okay. Health comes first and foremost, as always, and I'm sure we can all wait a little longer for all the awesome content put out by this channel. Wishing you the best of luck on your recovery, and I hope you and the rest of the gang can carry on in the future without too much issue.
Hope your wrist starts feeling beter. Always sucks when medical situations get in the way of doing things you love. However dont force yourself to work through the pain. Take as many breaks as you need! Keep being amazing!
As a fellow artist who developed tendinitis and carpal tunnel in my drawing hand/wrist and elbow, I can empathize. It sounds like you've got a good mindset and a team of healthcare professionals helping with your recovery so I'm sure any advice I could give would be repetitive, so I'll just say that I wish you the best and hope your recovery goes smoothly.
I’ve had hand/wrist pain for the past year and it is so hard. Some days I can’t move my wrist at all because of the pain, and sometimes I drop things at work because my hands just give in or it hurts so bad. I can’t even do some of the things I could before. Sadly all I have is my braces.
Take care of yourself Piemations
Thank you for all you awesome animations please take your time and take breaks we can obviously wait. Hope you recovery goes smoothly
Man, what a tricky circumstance for you to be in. I hope you can overcome it to the best of your ability. It also sucks that a lot of the content you want to make is too difficult for you to do at the moment, but I’m still eager to stick around and see what this channel produces, no matter what. Good luck with the future of your channel, and I hope you’re doing well. :)
@@______Pomni______ ⚡👨🏿⚡ yourself
@@______Pomni______ bait used to be believable
TRICKY FNF !??!!!
but i agree tho
It's always important to focus on health, it's way more than understandable to recover before coming back.
Get well soon, adore you're work!
Completely understandable. I had the exact same thing happen to me halfway through my illustration degree. Took a lot of time off of artwork, exercises, wrist support, but despite managing the pain now I had to completely rethink how feasible an art career is for me and how I do my work. Do what you gotta do, and wishing you the best!
I honestly hope the best for you and I have always been a fan of you animations over the years. Take care Mike
Awh, I’m so sorry to hear this, Pie. Repetitive strain injuries SUUUCK.
This is my third year living with tendinitis in mostly my right hand and wrist. Thankfully, it’s at a point where I can draw almost every day without pain (my wrist are just forever clicky now lol) just not for as long as I used to. You will be back up and animating again without pain, I promise you.
The first year living with tendinitis was definitely the worst, but it’s all just normal now and bad pain only flares up rarely-that’s what I know I need to take a break lol
Definitely consider working out your arms and back muscles so you can support that wrist! Also stretching and taking small breaks is very important. Wishing you a fast healing!
Get well NOW ❤
this is a threat
@@ari_coolyes it is
The nicest threat ever
@@______Pomni______ they’re not fighting just because you like one over the other it doesn’t mean you should blast your opinion at another animator that’s having a rough time
Man I’m sorry dude. I can’t control what you do but take a break! You doing so much and all that with wrist pain. I just hope everything gets better for you!
Best wishes to ya take your time with whatever you need to and we’ll be here when your ready
I'm deeply saddened to hear that your art might not be the same as before, but I still wish you a great recovery hopefully. I will always still remember the great animations you made, and the wonderful memories I've received from you! You were by far one of my most favorite animators here on CZcams.
Your art and animations are amazing, and I think that you, as the person behind most of that, deserve everyone's support. Take your time and heal! Wishing you the best.
Hey Piemations I’m sorry to comment a bit late but I would just like to say, I’m sorry to hear about your pain and I Hope it gets better eventually if not soon. I wish and Hope for nothing but the Best for you
Sorry to hear about all of this, Mike. We've missed seeing more of your work over here at my place, husband and I being long-time fans. I hope things continue to improve, wrist-wise and beyond. Take care and be sure not to push yourself TOO hard. You, your team, and your friends are all amazing and we appreciate all the fun and laughs, here's hoping for lots more to come, no matter the pace.
I’m glad you’re putting aside animating for your health as that’s more important. Also RIP Sheriff Hayseed, gone but not forgotten.
I wish you a speedy recovery!
Hope you heal as quickly and painlessly as possible. Looking forward to more of your creations as you can!
Safe recovery Mike. Will forever be here for whatever and whenever you post
i just spent the entirety of my past semester of an art degree with tendinitis in my wrists/arms, so to say this video is relatable would be. an understatement lol. i 100% understand and empathize with the feelings you've expressed, and i know it must have been really stressful and mentally taxing to not only recover, but to consider your future options. it's definitely sad to hear about the projects that won't continue, but like many others are commenting, your health comes first and we would much rather you work in the way you need to than have you hurt yourself further. best of luck, and i'm excited for what the future holds for your channel, regardless of what that future looks like!
I dont mind waiting for you to get better.
Take your time bro. You can't rush art.
If you feel we need some sort of update, maybe show us some spoiler free storyboards and sketches. I always love seeing these kind of things
thank you mio for your kind words
I’ve been a fan since your early days, thank you for sharing your creativity and talent.
i could watch a single still frame with piemation's jokes over it and still be highly entertained, you do amazing work man
Wishing you a speedy recovery! Your health is way more important than content. Even though upload schedules will be slower, I'm still happy to see you here! You've been an inspiration to me ever since your FNAF and TF2 animations. Take a break for as long as you need to and I hope you feel better soon Mike.
Cheers!
♥
From one artist to another, thank you for all your hard work. In funny and great ways, your animations helped me bond with friends and created amazing moments I won't ever forget. Take care of yourself Mike.
i love your content piemations lots. hope your wrist pain gets well soon
Oh no, i hope you'll be ok 😢
first
@@______Pomni______no one asked about your dissapoiting life
Don’t worry bro, as a fellow artist who currently has tendinitis in my dominant wrist myself, your health is more important, we will always be here to support you no matter what. Sending ❤ and good vibes your way.
Man, this is really sad to hear. I wish you all the luck in the world for the wrist pain and I hope whatever plan you end up with for your channel and animations, you put your health and well-being first as much as possible.
Have been struggling with hand/wrist/arm pains for a bit over a year now, that's forced me away from projects and hobbies. And yeah, it's rough. But you're set for (general) recovery! Best of luck, pieman.
I’ve watched you for years, to hear you have to go through this made me genuinely upset, you have a personality behind the art that others can’t replicate, and I really hope you can still animate after this, or at least live a functioning life with your situation. I wish you luck and thank you for what you’ve done, in a way you’ve made my childhood, I couldn’t thank you enough for that.
Dude, you can take as much time off as you need. we’ll always be here waiting for you.
You're a wonderful guy and a fantastic creator i have genuinely enjoyed what you do for as long as i have found it im sorry to hear your in pain and it admirable that you want to keep going in any way possible
I'm sorry about this issue. It is good that you have a small team to help with the projects. I hope your recovery makes the pain fade.
I went through the same experience about a year ago. I’m not an artist, but a musician. It’s terrifying thinking about what might happen if you lose the ability to do what you love. I still experience pain occasionally, but it’s not an all the time thing, and it’s not nearly as bad when it does flare up. I still sleep with the braces though. My advice is don’t get into your head too much. Things will get better, and dealing with a declining mental health isn’t something you deserve to go through along with the physical pain. I’m rooting for ya man!
Thanks for the check up for us we all hope you heal ❤
Sorry to hear about your dilemma, but at the same time, Im glad you're addressing it properly. As many have already said, we will always be patiently waiting for the next animation and will always understand and support your efforts! Look after yourself and I hope your injury improves 💙
Hey everyone, please make sure to exercise and take breaks. wrist pain is debilitating. Drawing should be a comfortable and relaxing experience.
Piemation, please take care of your health. Do not stress your body, if you are unkind to it, it will break.
Recovery is a long process. I had a mental break down two years ago and I'm still recovering.
Your fans are more interested in your health and well being than anything you make.
Woah
I hope you feel better man!
Take your time! You deserve a break ❤
good job on first bro
you first
Hello first man :D
@@______Pomni______ nah
I'm going through the exact same thing for 6 months as well . Hopping doctor from doctor and then not knowing whats wrong, or how to fix it. I've had steady improvement as well, but I have hope that it will get better! I wish you luck in your recovery!
The only thing you can do is to absolutely not use your wrists for any work .
It won't go away with medication.
It needs rest for a long long time to get better
Has any of those docs put your wrists through an MRI? Might want to push for that if it hasn't been done yet.
@@Gornemant The problem (if it is the same as mine ) Is not physicall in a sense of broken bones or similar physical damage. The muscles simply can't handle being overused / strained at the same posture for long periods of time.
They will start to hurt chronically if you do it over and over again.
It starts with an uneasy wrist feeling and will gradually become worse till it hurts like you bent your wrist in the wrong direction.
It sometimes burns a bit as well.
That problem can occure if you overwork your wrist with manual labor or heavy machinery that vibrates.
Alternatively you can get that problem if you strain your wrist for long periods at similar postures like drawing or working in an office / gaming far to long.
Sorry for the weird use of medical terms.
English is not my first language.
I've been watching since meet the amazing team in the early days. You've brought plenty of joy with your toons and I pray the road of recovery is quick and easy. Take care of yourself Mike, you deserve a break.
I hope you feel better! Love your work! Take care of yourself.
I understand your current circumstances and Even without them i wouldve enjoyed what i could get anyways. Regardless Ill always support and appreciate your content. (Animation is hard as is and after trying to do a bit myself i see how much effort is out into a 1 second animation.)
this is proof your dearly missed and we are still here for you
Heart you and appreciate the updates!
Really sad to hear that. I understand what it’s like to have a condition that will probably never get better in the future, but that’s really rough that it affects your passion. Do your best to recover as much as you can!
Damn, man, I feel bad, take a break until this resolves itself, and even then, don't overdo it
I don't know for others but I can tell you that I'll absolutely be watching the videos no matter how long the time between videos is
I’m so sorry you’re going through this, man. You’re one of my absolute favorite creators on CZcams and I’ll always be here for your art and videos, whenever they come out. You focus on healing, buddy.
So sorry about your wrist, and take all the time you need. just don't give up on healing, you can overcome anything with the right mindset
Thank you for informing us! I really hope that you're able to recover soon!
Aw man…
If you haven't already, I highly suggest looking into ergonomic mice and keyboards. I was starting to get wrist pain that made working on computers very, very difficult. I found switching to a vertical mouse and ergonomic keyboard really helped. A wrist rest and better body positioning helped drastically too. Even small changes can really have a big impact when you are in pain.
Keep on keepin on brother. Loved the work and everything you've produced You gave a lot to many communities and hilarious content to laugh at for years to come
You are one of my absolute favorite content creators out there. As a content creator and (very wonderful and amazing) artist it can be demanding physically and mentally and I'm more aware of that thanks to the video above. I'll say as your viewer and follower, take as much time as you need or want. This is just my opinion but, you're a person I care about and look forward to seeing their next works, I don't want to put anymore pressure on you and I can be patient. Especially for serious matters such as this. No matter how long it takes, take the time you need. You're awesome
If making animations causes you physical pain, trust me, all your real fans prefer your physical health over your animations. Take a break, get better. Don’t do anything that makes you unhappy (Or more present in this case, don’t do it if it causes you pain)
I hope your wrist pain goes away soon, but I know that it will take time. I hope you feel better by then.
I had wrist pain in my right arm before, which made me scared as i thought i would never get to draw anymore. But then after starting to do palm stretches, the pain went away. I was very relieved. Hope for your pain to be relieved too!
Thanks for the update. Hope the wrists improve.
Sad to hear Sheriff Hayseed has been scrapped but I remember you mentioned in a livestream a while back that you were feeling disconnected from it. I am gutted about Mike and Zack being done though.
Still will be here regardless and want you to get yourself as well as you can. Take care, Mike and thanks for the over decades worth of work you have done. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with in the future!
As someone with carpal tunnel and as someone that's been watching you for years, please take care of yourself Piemations. Your animations are sublime and I'm sure still will be, even if you have to take a break. Your health always comes first.
I, and I'm sure many others will be there for whatever comes next, whether that be in 2 months, or 2 years. Take care!
