Advice from a fellow student with RSI
“I had already seen some people with RSI complaints.
I never thought that it could happen to me” (source: dutch RSI society)
His advice:• Talk about your complaints• Draw a line on how much you can have• Ask for help• Be careful not to try to satisfy others too much• Don’t be a perfectionist • Listen to your body
