Breathing exercises. Get some electrolites or at least a magnesium. And definitely try decatastrophizing whatever thoughts you might have, even if you don't believe in the afirmations you'll make during the decatastrophization, just do it. It's just a bad day, you know you'll be fine, hang in there. :-*

"People look at their current state of affairs and say, "This is who I am." That's not who you are. That's who you were. If you look at your current state of affairs, let's say you don't have a lot of money in your bank account. That's not who you are. It's the residual outcome of your past thoughts and actions. So we're constantly living in this residual of the thoughts and actions we've taken in the past. When you look at your current state of affairs and define yourself by that, then you doom yourself to have nothing more than the same in the future. " -James Arthur Ray, 'The Secret'
Remember your plan, Sha. Positive energy and watching The Secret every night sounds like a damn good one. Keep note than any negative energy from this hard ass month may have manifested itself today - and that's okay. But if you stay in that negative head space then you'll just put the same bad vibes out there AGAIN to be manifested later on. Keep your head up and know that you're on the right track. You don't have to smile in spite of today but do it in expectation of the rewards tomorrow.

On a good note, this configuration helps us with our goals. The idea for everyone is that if you have a goal set, or a plan, you should NOT give it up in the next few months, till the end of December, even if there will be challenges. If you stick to your plan, you will be rewarded after December, as your plans will come out better than you hoped for. That is what this planet configuration means now.
I am logging off now too.
Kisses, I am happy to be here for you whenever you need an advice, as long as I am able to help!
I appreciate you explaining. I'll stay positive & focus on my goals. I really appreciate your support!

I'll do that. I'll keep repeating positive affirmations. I will also eat & take my vitamins. I don't have magnesium, but it'd be a good idea to take my vitamins. Thank you for the advice. I'll be good to myself today.

Girl, that's so helpful. I'll keep thinking positively so I can get through this. You're right...I've got to remember the energy & feelings I have been experiencing & turn them around otherwise I'll manifest the opposite of my intentions.
Thank you <3

Re: The 'Sick Girls' Camming Club
Ladies, I can't thank you enough for the support. After I responded I took your advice: ate healthy (vegetable spaghetti with power greens), drank 40 oz water, took my vitamins, did some inverted yoga poses, then engaged in an hour long guided self hypnosis to cleanse my Chakras.
I'm ok! I feel like myself again & all of the catastrophic thinking is gone.
Thank you all for caring enough to share advice on how to cope. I feel incredibly better.

I love you girls ! It feels so good to have each other ! I have a tendency to catastrophise. But tht is because of anxiety. I relly on the secret aswell, tough i forget about it too many times. I had a dark period too. I try to rewire my brain to think positive: what is the point? What is the point to make ourselfs suffer, when we can be happy and embrace ourselfs with positive toughts. If something is meant to happen, what is the point to suffer twice ? When you can suffer just once (when it actually does happen?). That is it evan happens at all. All our worst case scenarios? There have been studies made that say it is a 99% chance they won't happen. It is just our minds playin tricks on us.
We are so busy suffering, thinking about what COLD happen , worst case scenarios; that we miss on the beautiful parts of life. At one point we might regret that.
It is hard, I struggle myself, that is why i write this. I am aware. I try to change.
It is funny cause now I do so well on cam but i still think I could end up homeless LOL. That fucking annoying: animal instincts and brain together; ARE haha !
Breathe in , breathe out, everything will be fine.

Re: The 'Sick Girls' Camming Club
I was so desperate to stop my pain. I've been dealing with neck, lower back, and knee pain. Arthritis.
I bought a medicated rub on with capsaicin ( chili peppers) as the main ingredient.
I must've touched my knee while camming, then rubbed my vagina.
Because the next thing I knew, my vagina was burning like crazy! It felt like it was on fire!
OMG! :yikes:
Naturally, I was in the middle of a long show, which focused on my vagina.
I logged off and googled how to stop this intense pain.
Coconut oil helped.
I read that olive oil would too.
*I found it interesting that some people even use capsaicin purposely in the bedroom. ( BDSM)
Yeah, not me honey.
I hate pain of any kind.

Right! When my anxiety is so bad I have derealization my thoughts become dark. But when the anxiety is gone, I have positive and optimistic thoughts. And breathing did help. That hr long guided self hypnosis to cleanse my chakras involved lots of deep belly breathing, and legit...afterwards I was fine. Anxiety does trick the brain, and it is a shame that I wasted my time entertaining those horrible thoughts. It was a waste of time.
I agree that it's wonderful to have ladies that care. I was so scared, but the ladies helped me out and I got through it.

Auch! My mom has arthrosis, coxarthrosis, etc. Used capsaicin on her hip once and then somehow rubbed my eyes before washing my hands, it was burning! I imagine how it would feel on vag. Sorry you're going thru all those pains, since my mom has them, I know how much it sucks and how bad it's affecting the life quality when you're every day in pains. And worse thing...nothing seems to be helping, not even the meds doctors are prescribing.

I am so happy to hear that, hun! Big hug from me too! I wish you the best of luck today!
Oh, and I wanted to add, that I get derealization (which leads to anxiety) too when I get all up in my head from reading too much on the computer, being concentrated too much on my chat room (plus my other 11 tabs where I read all kinds of shit), writing, thinking and forgetting to stay grounded and to breathe properly. Grounding to me means to "stay in my body" not just in my head, to do some kind of mindful physical activity and to breathe right. Happens when I am tired, as well. I luckily learned how to fix it. Grounding techniques really do help! That's why I told you inversions would help, because a change of perspective moves you right out of the current train of thoughts ;-) Focusing on breathing does that too, but slower.

Re: The 'Sick Girls' Camming Club
^^Sister, I'm so glad I'm not alone. You're right, I was in my head too much & forgot mindfulness & awareness. You know, while I was inverted I was able to use positive affirmations which did calm me down plus deep breathing assisted. But what really brought me back was that hour of positive visualizations & Deep breathing.
You were right: today I'm much better. I said like night & day & it's true. Cleansing Chakras, watching The Secret, & resting completely transformed me.
(((hugs))) I appreciate you.

You know, I've had repeat dreams about elevators. I'm in them, and they're going up, way beyond where I'm trying to go. But they're always shaky and unstable. They rattle and once, it kinda turned on its side on the way up. One of the elevators flew out of the top of a roof, like a rocket!
It's funny that you mention this timeline, because my goal is to leave my present apartment and city. I need serious money to do it, and my current lease is up this coming February. Right now, I have too many obstacles to make it happen, but I'd still love to try. So I'm doing my best. I'm tracking my income sources, and of course, I'm on top of my spending habits. But mostly, I just need a lot more income. :-\

Re: The 'Sick Girls' Camming Club
Today is NOT my day. Started feeling lightheaded on cam and I had to throw up. Now I've got a headache. I hope it's an indigestion, although I had my last meal 8 hours ago, kinda late for an indigestion. But I really hope it's an indigestion and that I didn't intoxicated myself vaping. I don't think I vaped more than usual but... I freak out a bit now. Damn oral fixation, I should start sucking on lollipops or keep a dildo in my mouth during my whole shift coz sometimes I forget to stop vaping while I'm at my computer. If I'm in bed or do anything else I'll puff now and then, when at computer my oral fixation is activated. Ugh.

Re: The 'Sick Girls' Camming Club
^^I vape too and notice if I haven't eaten much I'll feel sick to my stomach. I try to drink water and relax. It could be indigestion too. I'm sorry. I hate when that happens. Sending you good vibes.

Thank You my darling. Your empathy means a lot.:-*
We all know that trying to act sexy for what seems like endless hours on cam, is no picnic.
Sorry to hear about your Mom.
I'm returning the capsaicin rub to the store today.
It's just too dangerous to use.

I had to stop vaping altogether because I was getting sick like that. I could not stop doing it either when working, I kept vaping non stop when not in private and at times in private too. I think it was stress mixed with extreme boredom, in my case, cause I don't have an oral fixation..

That sucks, I love vaping and I don't want to ever quit. What percent nicotine were you vaping? I vape 3% and while it's a low percent, it could have been vaping causing my sickness last night. With a hystory of anxiety and hypochondria and so many anti-vaping things I see on TV here, I freaked out for a bit although I vape for 3 years and never made me sick. I vaped way less today and as soon as I finish the 6 e-liquid bottles that I have now, I'll lower nic percent to 1.5%. I'm not even getting the whole 3% coz I vape MTL and not DL but just to not stress again, I will lower it. But I really tend to believe that it was the food I had early in the day coz something felt off today as well, I had no appetite.

I did not use nicotine at all. I quit smoking while ago and I did not feel the need to use nicotine when vaping, luckily. But to me, vaping for a long time is definitely not good. Now I don't do it at all, maybe only when I am playing pool. I can't feel like a significant pool player if I'm not producing some kind of smoke LOL.
In your case, could have been the food, too, I have intolerance to hydrogenated oil, for example, so when I eat some of that shit I get drained of energy and nauseous and if it was a lot of oil i the food, I get a full blown migraine, for 2 days. But then again, I am weird. ;-)

From what I know is nicotine that can get us sick so yeah, that's weird. Here I am vaping only 4ml a day now lol. Maybe tomorrow I'll make an e-liquid with lower nic so I don't stress when I forget to stop vaping. Since it's a contest this week, I might be in free chat forever doing nothing but vape lol.

Re: The 'Sick Girls' Camming Club
Have you ever been afraid to eat, but you really need to? My insides decided to rebel on me last night. I have IBS anyway, but between anxiety, infrequent eating habits, a fried chicken lunch, lactose intolerance, and a little ice cream...well, ya know....
I'm doing BRAT diet all today. Blargh!!! And I missed my shift this morning because I needed to rest, and I needed to wait for my BRAT diet delivery to come to me from Amazon. I'll see how I feel in a few hours, and I'll try to do an early evening shift.

I feel you. Been there for years, before knowing about my hydrogenated oil intolerance. Because that shit is in pretty much everything that you buy from the supermarket (except for fresh produce of course), I was getting sick every few days and would miss working at least 1-2 days a week and feel miserable and no one knew what the heck was wrong with me. I had lost so much weight too, I was not looking good on cam anymore either. So happy I finally figured it out (by myself, cause doctors were useless, of course).
Now I cannot eat 90% of the things I used to love but that's ok, I am 40 so... my metabolism is not as fast as when I was 20, when I could eat like a pig and not gain a kilo. So I am grateful for the forced diet. And I feel much better too, my mind is clearer and I have more energy.

Tell me about it! When I was first living on my own (late teens/early 20s), I could eat whatever, and when I wanted to drop a few pounds, then just skip a meal or two! Then into my 30s, eating what I wanted, but gaining weight, but no bodily problems.
Now I'm WELL into my 40s, and since last summer, I've had the feeling that certain foods are rebelling against my body! Or probably, my body is rebelling against them. I enjoyed my fried chicken lunch on Sunday, but I was also thinking, I really want to invest money into eating cleaner foods. Yeah, fast food is cheap, I get coupons galore, but...I guess my belly and my taste buds are finally growing up!
But I still need a good burger every week or so. And the odd cold beer. :P
ETA: I don't think I should do an evening shift. Part of this issue is anxiety related, so I think I'll take the day to calm my nerves down, and then the rumbling will stop with a good day and night of rest.
