Just want to mention that us
#vtuberswithdisabilities
, its a lot harder for us to grow because some of us are unable to do 5+ hour streams, our bodies just won’t allow us which makes it harder for us to grow a community on Twitch. So just want to say thank you to those that
Last month I started a Vtubers With Disabilities list, we got 200+ in 4 days. I plan to do this every month in hopes that we don’t get forgotten & so we continue to grow. So, if you are a vtuber or vtuber artist with physical or mental disabilities/illness please comment below
Was talking about my chronic pain during yesterdays stream and got asked if I’m in pain while I’m gaming and just wanted to discuss it here a bit too..
The answer is yes. Every second that I’m streaming, I’m in pain. Chat doesn’t notice because as many people with chronic illness
It’s being heartbroken you can’t work. Its having to grieve all your dreams and plans. It’s worrying about how you are going to survive and what your future is going to look like. It’s not having a stable income. It’s not enjoying time off work, it’s not. It’s scary.
Just want to remind vtubers starting out, you don’t need everything to be perfect when you debut. First year of streaming I was streaming from my PS5, no model, no overlays, just a mic. I’m on year 3, I only have a PNG, and it doesn’t even have an open & close mouth. It’s okay!
Hi hi! I’m Sheepy and I’m the founder of
#VtubersWithDisabilities
I know a lot of new people are stopping by due to just finding out about VtubersWithDisabilities, if you’re a disabled vtuber or disabled vtuber artist and want to be added to the list, let me know~
I’m disabled. I spend 99% of my time in my room, I don’t have irl friends, I have no one to socialize with, no human connections, it gets lonely. I started streaming because I wanted to make friends, I wanted people I could connect with. I didn’t wanna be alone anymore.
Disabled content creators don’t have it easier, not even in the slightest. We are unable to put in as many hours as an abled person due to our conditions which make our growth a lot slower. Because we need multiple breaks between tasks, a to-do list that might take someone a day
If you are someone who thinks streamers that are chronically ill have it “easier” please unfollow me. We have to work TWICE as hard and TWICE as much to get stuff done in a few days because the next couple are going to be a bitch. From body pains, from being fatigued and not
Being a disabled content creator is so hard and it’s why I made
#VtubersWithDisabilities
, so we can have a community that understands the struggle, but also with the hope that we can one day change this whole grind culture because honestly, it’s unhealthy. For example when did
Also not to be that guy but Vtubing should be a safe space for chronically ill individuals but the culture makes us consistently feel like shit with the encouraged grind culture. You are seen as “messing with your community’s trust” for taking days off.
It’s time for
#vtuberswithdisabilities
monthly post! (I know it’s not the 1st of the month but sheep has been working hard and wants to try to get her weekend free) If you are a vtuber or vtuber artist with disabilities, and want to be added to the
#vtuberswithdisabilities
list
#VtubersWithDisabilities
It’s so hard for us disabled creators to grow because everything we do is at a much slower pace than someone that’s abled. Our bodies get physically tired, our minds, we are in pain, tasks that could take one day to finish take us sometimes four days at
Sorry, but I only collab with friends. It’s just more comfortable for me knowing the person,their energy,what games they like to play, how they like to play them. And if you are trying to collab for followers, I will smell that, I won’t say anything, but I’ll remember it.

I’ve been inspired by
@UmenoUsagiCh
to make a ‘Vtubers With Disabilities’ list. Just as a way for me to support and have people to go to when I need advice. So if you are a vtuber with mental/physical/disabilities/chronic illness or know of a vtuber that is leave a comment below!
do support us. Those that follow, those that come to the streams, those that understand when streams are canceled, those that understand when streams are only one, two hours long, those that love and support us anyway, thank you. We don’t take you for granted. 🐑💕
Please anyone with the same headset, please please be careful. This looks like it was extremely painful, thankfully the poster said the ringer in their ear has stopped, but omg, please be careful.
Has anyone else had this happen with
@LogitechG
headphones? I was loading into a DBD match, silent- no music. My left ear is ringing and hurts like hell, if it was any louder idk what would have happened
Logitech this is really dangerous
I haven’t said it in awhile,
#VtubersWithDisabilities
, if talking about your disability makes people uncomfortable, then make them uncomfortable. We need to talk about disability. This is our lives, we shouldn’t have to be hush about it to make others more comfortable.
Hi, I’m Sheepy & I have a

know Humble/Epic is not welcome in our community. Please do NOT use his hashtag that he made to play off of mine. He’s not welcome and is ban on all accounts. Please block him and stay safe. But I just want everyone to know he’s not welcome here.
I’ve said it before & I’ll say it again, Humble has been banned from my VtubersWithDisabilities server for awhile now, he’s not welcome in my community. He uses our
#VtubersWithDisabilities
hashtag, but know he’s not apart of the community, he is unwanted & unwelcomed here.
I opening talk about periods, I don’t think it’s anything to be ashamed of, it’s natural & happens to a lot of us. I see no issue saying I’m getting my period or am on my period, saying I’m having symptoms related to my period. We have to make this more normal. I want chocolate.
Please support disabled creators!!!
Like, share, comment on our posts. Come to our streams, commission our art. Leave a tip if financially able. Tell your friends about us.
Here is a list of disabled vtubers/ vtuber artist

With all that said,
#vtuberswithdisabilities
, want to remind you that even tho it’s hard, trust the process, be patient with yourself, be proud of yourself and your efforts, listen to your body and it’s needs, you are doing great, we see the hard work you put in, it’ll be okay
I just wanna show how supporting disabled creators helps us a lot. I’m disabled, unable to work, Twitch is the only income I get when I do get a Twitch payout but that’s not regularly. I also have food stamps and that’s how I feed myself. Currently my food stamps didn’t come in
know, we are pretty good at hiding or ignoring our pain. But while I’m streaming, yes, I’m in pain. Towards the 3 hour mark it gets harder to ignore and I start to show signs of being uncomfortable, tired, quiet, irritable which is why my streams are 3 hours long. After stream is
Na, I tell my whole chat when I’m streaming that I have my period, I do this every time & you can’t stop me. If it makes you uncomfortable then you need to be uncomfortable until talking about something as natural as periods is a normal conversation as it should. Fight me
Too many sisters talking so openly about their time of month occurring today. Polite reminder, we all don’t need to know, you can tell your friends privately instead.
I started
#VtubersWithDisabilities
because when I started out I couldn’t find any disabled vtubers, there was no hashtag for us. A year and a half later, the list is currently at 1.6k & still growing. Our discord is full of amazing people. We don’t have to feel alone ever again
Over, I clean off my desk and collapse into bed. After stream I am in a lot of pain and fatigue. I can barely make myself dinner or get up to brush my teeth before bed. No one sees that part tho and during stream I seem fine. But thank you chat for showing up, it makes it all
PSA to all my

I'm genuinely going to say this last time and last time only and then I will start blocking people:
If you support this sicko, out. You are not welcome.
I was fine just warning you guys but him sending people to harass my (minor!) little brother is IT.
#vtuberswithdisabilities
When I say I haven’t had friends in about 10 years before I became a streamer, this is why. When I became more disabled my friends left, I wasn’t fun anymore. My boyfriend of 4 years broke up with me because he didn’t want to have to care for me and be the only one with a job.
I think it's messed up that most people abandon their disabled friends and that it's such a common and accepted thing.
They usually blame the disabled friend. And abandon them when they need them most. Some outright say that they only want able bodied friends.

You’ll understand, but, you know those moments where you are like, “aaa, I’ve been fine lately, maybe I’m not disabled” then you overdo it and, “yup, definitely disabled”
#VtubersWithDisabilities
Anyone else can relate?
When you are home 99% of the time that anytime you’re able to go out it’s like a special occasion to dress up. I have a doctors appointment tomorrow so I’m doing my nails.

I just want to inform everyone, dont follow this list, he’s been adding vtubers that aren’t in wheelchairs to this list, it’s not a accurate list. Also, don’t tag him, I’m sure he likes the attention. He’ll probably see this because I’m sure he’s following me on another account
Due to the post about Epic/Humble not being allowed into the
#VtubersWithDisabilities
community, I’ve gotten a few new followers. And just wanted to say if you are a disabled vtuber and want to be added to our VtubersWithDisabilities list, let me know.
It’s my birthday! Sheepers is now 35! I mention my age because I hope it makes getting older a bit less scary. I hope it shows that, you still have your hobbies, you’re still learning, growing, having new experiences, this is just a new chapter but not the end of the book
When organizing collabs 🧵,
• Make a group chat for everyone to hang out in

I started streaming because I spent the past 9 years alone. I’m disabled & rarely ever leave my house outside of doctors appointments & food shopping. I don’t have any irl friends, no human interaction/connection. Before I got Bubba (my cat) I was mute for a year. My cat is…

Question, I was planning on making a
#vtuberswithdisabilities
discord once my schedule opened up since I’ve been busy with collabs these 2 weeks but woke up to see someone already made one and now I don’t know if I should even make it or not. Should I?
I’m still fairly new to the vtuber community but I can only hope that my mark can be that I gave disabled vtubers a new space with
#VtubersWithDisabilities
and that in the long run we can make a change in this whole ‘grind/how to make it as a content creator’ mindset.
Why I don’t like 12+ streams; 🧵
They’re unhealthy, it’s as simple as that.
It’s unhealthy for anyone to be doing anything for that long. We have hydrate & stretch redeems in this vtuber community to try to remind the streamer to care for themselves but yet we still promote
With 🦋 now being open without invite & with a lot of people moving over and leaving Twitter behind, I just want to be a reminder; that those of us that deal with disabilities might have a harder time doing that. Social media requires a lot of time & energy from those of us that

crew, with the holidays coming up, I know this might be a lonely time for you. It’s okay if you don’t have family to go to, it’s okay if you do have family but you don’t get along with them, it’s okay if you have nowhere to go, no special events-
With it being Pride Month, those that have LGBTQIA+ tags on their Twitch streams, like I do, please be careful this month when it comes to hate raids. Please make sure you have Shield Mode ready, make sure your mods are ready, just be safe, okay? Love you! 🏳️🌈

Do I think one day I’ll become a big vtuber and be able to make this my job? No, I don’t. I don’t think that will happen. I don’t think I’ll make it big or make it where I can live off streaming.
Does that make me sad? A little bit. As a disabled person being able to have a job
I’m pretty sure this person is

To all you artist that do raffles, thank you so much for the opportunity! Especially for people like me that are disabled/can’t work & are low on funds so can’t always just commissions to get a model, emotes or art done, it really helps us a lot to get the chance to maybe
“I don’t want to be known as a disabled creator/
#vtuberswithdisabilities

Don’t come into my space with your negativity. I understand no one wants pity follows for their disabilities, I get that. But this VtubersWithDisabilities list I made, I made with the intention to make friends. I made it with the intention for you all to make friends. To find

I should probably talk a little as to why I made the
#VtubersWithDisabilities
list. I’ve trouble sitting for long periods at a time due to chronic pain, and with vtubing you sit a bunch. And I wanted tips as to how other disabled bodies did it or at least made it more comfortable
Last night I was thinking because I do get asked if I’m using my disability to get pity follows and the thing is, I went years hiding my disability because I didn’t want people to treat me differently or for safety and now that I’m open about it, it’s been so much easier on me.
With a lot of new people, I want to mention, if you are a disabled vtuber or vtuber artist and have followed me recently and would like to be added to the
#vtuberswithdisabilities
list, then comment below. I have alot to do this weekend but I’ll try to get through everyone.

Anniversary Month, just a reminder that we have a whole list of 1000+ disabled vtubers & vtuber artists you can go through if you wanna help support or help spread awareness. Link will be below.
Thank you to everyone that supports me and my content. I got my first Twitch pay today and I’m an absolute mess. As someone that’s disabled and can’t work but also hasn’t been able to get disability to support herself, this is a huge deal. So thank you with all my heart because
Can I add:
Please feel comfortable playing games you enjoy on stream. You don’t have to play the most popular games because it’ll get you views. Play games because you enjoy them & want to play them, that way you can build a fan base of people that also enjoy the things you do!
Please feel comfortable:
Eating on stream
Having a long starting soon screen
Taking a break
Promoting your content
Silence
Skipping messages
Running ads
It’s YOUR stream, that’s the beauty of it 💕

Can I just say a huge thank you to those artist that do raffles and fan art. You take time out of paid commissions to do something for the community for free and that’s amazing and I thank you. As someone that can’t work due to disabilities, I don’t always have the funds
I didn’t know they showed everyone’s name that got put into the Small Vtuber Awards and I didn’t know someone put my name in. Honestly, making me cry that someone thought of me. So thank you! 🥺😭💕
We’re chronically ill! Of course we carry a mini pharmacy in our bags wherever we go! What you need? Tylenol? Allergy medication? Heartburn relief? Ace bandage?
I know it’s a joke on my stream that words are hard. But I don’t think people realize how much so. I’ve always struggled with being able to say the word perfectly in my head but once trying to get it to form out my mouth, there is a huge disconnect and I’m unable to, which is

When you have a chronic illness/disability, getting a cold or flu is a whole other ballgame. To add even more aches, pains, discomfort and exhaustion to ones that already exists in your day to day, it’s a lot. Our already overworked bodies now have to put in overtime to get us
Warning, a rant from a unhappy Sheepy:
I’m not gonna even finish reading the messages this person received about needing proof. You don’t need to prove anything to anyone, nothing. You don’t owe anyone a damn thing. So I hope they have stopped trying to gather paperwork/bills
I am sorry I cannot provide you guys more proof of my illnesses. I am trying to gather my paper works and working to redact important and personal info to post proof of a few payments I had to make for my surgery. I cannot move much but I will try my best to look for them when I
It’s okay if you aren’t able to beat a game. It doesn’t make you any less of a “gamer”. Don’t let “I finished this game, it was easy~” type of people get you down. We finished Parasite Eve yesterday, I was unable to beat the final bosses so we watched a YouTube video of someone
I started vtubing because I’m disabled and rarely ever leave my house or have any human interaction, it became very lonely. I just wanted to make friends 🐑💕
I started vtubing because I have a difficult time working. All my jobs kept falling through and I started feeling helpless once covid hit. I also needed to socialize, and the character creation for myself felt so empowering and has helped me with identity.

A lot of the time streamers only see their following as a number, a next number goal to achieve, “Help me hit xxxx followers~”. I don’t think they stop to just imagine what even 100 people look like in a room, that’s a lot of people! Be grateful for where you’re at, no- -
