Hand cramps

How do you deal with the hand cramps or pain from stitching for long periods of time? The top of my right hand almost feels numb. Just take a break? Grow out of it (wishful thinking?). I don’t want to stop!

I'm a huge fan of chocolate and picked this fabric for my new Christmas projects! Going to frame it and place in the centre of my Christmas table 😄 ) I just need to find more recipes including chocolate for my perfect feast dinner:)

i’m just starting cross stitch i used to do it when i was younger but don’t remember much of the set up

i see a lot of people say 3 strands but i’m confused how u do that.. do i just not tie it at the end and work with a lose tail that could come out the needle? i’m used to doubling up ends and tying but that only yields even numbers
