Hey guys, sorry for the gloomy title xD!

I wondered if anyone else suffers from parkinsons and how they cope and how it affects their osu play?
since I get pain in my hands quite fast, and it has definately limited me over the years with streaming, as in I can't really do streams anymore.

thats how I can singletap so fast, intense shaking.

Jokes aside, given how many people play this game, there have to be at least 100 other people who have this. I don't know of any forum users with parkinsons though.

I love this game, and many more.
My hands wouldn't make me stop doing any of it, I just wondered how others get around/cope with it etc.
Besides, no point in not enjoying things you love, life is too short xD

4 hours doesn't seem like to much to me tbh. I'm not really a standard player (I play mania), is it your mouse hand or your tapping hand?
I've played 6+ hrs in once sitting and the only reason I got off was because it was late. I don't really get too much pain though my fingers will get tired if I have to press keys really fast without a break but I usually recover by the next 2 to 3 songs.
Its my tapping hand that i felt the most pain while my hand that holding the mouse only my pinky finger felt the pain cause i have a bad habit of resting my pinky finger on the table( my mouse hand have no problem tho cause it recover in few min). I kinda like to play full ver map (4min - 15min max nonstop) and no resting just four hour straight.
Yeah my hand did get tire after a few min but i ignore it and continue playing.

I don't think osu! is the right game for you, OP.

If you have Parkinson's, I think you should quit this game.

Same

I don't know the effects of induced shaking when having parkinsons, but that doesn't sound like a good idea.

I do have tremors on both of my hands (not really affect osu! tbh). But not parkinson (God I hope I won't, at least not in my prime age).

Parkinson's is neurological and has nothing to do with extended use of mouse and keyboard. You (alogn with what seems to be pretty much everyone else in this thread) are mixing it up with carpool tunnel syndrome.
