Re: The "Just stay the fuck on" thread.
After 2 hours I have 0$. Pff this isnt the best start for the new month. I wanna do at least 3 more hours, and reach at least 30$. I have very low traffic, and barely anyone says a hello :D Hopefully some normal guy find me and save the day.
Update:
More than 3 hours and still nothing. In the past 30 mins no one entered my room, WTF is this today :@ :( I started on 3th page today, now Im on 5th, pff

You might want to change your monitor and lighting or the settings on it. Do you use dark mode? Look at your background/your room and see if there is anything there that could be contributing to your aches since we look at ourselves all day long there might be something in your stream aggravating the brain as well. Reading the chat is already strenuous as it is, try changing the colors?
On this same topic do any of you ladies have finger/wrist/hand pain? My hands ache from typing so much and editing videos. Ive changed my mouse and it has helped but I still get stiffness to where I cant move my hands/fingers 1 day a week I have to take off to recover my hands.
I think it's just the end of the month/ pre holiday slowdown right now. I'm sure it'll pick back up over the holiday.

I don't have epilepsy, it's a struggle for me to cam more than 2-3 hours in one sitting. My body needs to move and stretch and my eyes need a break from the lights and monitors. I usually do split shifts, twice a day. On rare occassion I can stream 4- 5 hours - but my body and mind are toast the next day.

I do experience pain in my hands/wrists when I am doing alot of vanilla shows. One thing I was thinking about looking into is those parrafin wax dips to soothe my wrists and hands. One of my first jobs when I was 16 was working in a chicken plant- the nurses station had the wax dips and it felt so soothing.
I know they make ergonomic pads for keyboards and mice. Also doing some wrist exercises before you start the day might be helpful.

Re: The "Just stay the fuck on" thread.
Gotta STFO today from 10am-6pm CST. I'll take a meditation break at 12pm when it usually gets dead AF. Yesterday I did 7 hrs 43 min and exceeded med goal on SM. Hopefully today I can do the same. Ideally I'd like high goal, but fuck...it's a Thursday and they usually aren't busy.
Gonna try to keep a positive frame of mind and be calm. I did it yesterday and I think I can do it today.
Let's GOOOOO!!!
UPDATE:
1.5 hrs and was ready to log off and say fuck it then meditate when all of the sudden a new member went pvt. He wanted a bj story while I posed non-nude. He was super polite and made small talk for the first 2 min. It was fun to talk about my BF and it totally got me off plus he was tipping 5 GOLD.
$48 for 1.5 hrs and I'm happy about that.
UPDATE:
2 hrs and $87. Not exactly what I was hoping for, but it will have to do. I have no expectations today. Just gonna do the hours in a good mood.
It's very quiet tho. Didn't get those 2 shows til almost 1.5 hrs in. It was dead in my room for over an hour. I had to restart stream and clear browsing history it was so dead.

thank you! I’ll check out CBD, diets not an issue, I’ve been epileptic since I was 5 and I manage it without drugs, changing my lifestyle accordingly. However mine is not really severe, I’m very lucky. I’ve tried changing lights doesn’t help.
the amount of sleep I need is very annoying!

when I worked as a writer I experienced severe wrist pain from typing. One of those keyboard wedge things really helped, you can also buy wrist supports that wrap around but prob won’t look great on cam x

I have that problem too I have to take lots of short breaks for a snack or walk around/sit down/get fresh air. I've had to train myself to stop dancing and bouncing around so much for free or I wouldn't be able to do 10 hrs days at all.

Yes I've trained myself to do that but then I just get the problem in both hands LOL! It is some kind of overuse problem because once I take a day off of resting they go back to normal again
Im stuck at $40 today. The 1st is usually not great for me so Im ok with it

Re: The "Just stay the fuck on" thread.
After 2 hrs I meditated then fell asleep for 1.5 hrs lololll. Damn, that nap was nice. I'm back til 6pm. These are the dead hours for me. If I get lucky I'll get a reg or two but I usually just sit and wait forever.
13 min so far and just one freeloader and one in then right out. FUCK, soooo slow. Ah well, I'll just chill.
UPDATE:
3 hrs now and $89. Yeah, it's really slow. Nothing for an hour but $2 from GOLD. The total bummer is the tips were from a level 2 who tipped then left. No show. Damn!
Well, spoke too soon. Got an EXCL and have exceeded low goal. $115 phew! Too bad he hit his limit.
UPDATE:
4 hrs and $158. Damn, thank god for foot guys. All but one show were foot fetish. And that last show was a foot JOI where he tipped 25 GOLD for me to squirt and rub it on my toes lololll. He came real fast.
UPDATE:
OMFG thank you Universe. Today started off rough, but it's almost 5 hrs on today and I've exceeded high goal: $214
I'm just so glad I can STFO now. I went through a phase where I just hated sitting. I'll def hit my weekly goal this way and I needed to in a bad way. THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!

Re: The "Just stay the fuck on" thread.

Yes, it has been very slow in my room. I wait and wait then get a show, but it's only like 1 show an hour and thank God for some generous guys tipping too.
Sending you good vibes for your shift Lady!!! :goodvibes

I made this deal with myself to not get upset anymore and just do the hours. Yesterday almost 8 hrs and calm. Today almost 6 hrs and calm. It does take a lot of effort not to get irritated as it's so slow. Yeah, I have had a lot of patience, but I have to sit as I totally fucked off for contest and only made like $300. This week I have to sit and hit weekly goal or I'm in big trouble.
I didn't get the stimulus that everyone else in US got. I filed and I'm finally getting the $600 but I'm not even getting the $1400.
I had to use a lot of savings recently and now I have car repairs for $400. If I don't sit and suck it up I can't pay rent or bills.
Yeah, this shit is hard. And sometimes I go 15 min without anyone in and I'm like WTF?!?!

Money wise, am in deep shit, i really need SM to pick up . The traffic is very strange, really. At one point i had lines at potentials for 5 minutes. Anyway, we will do our goals babe!

FINAL UPDATE:
6 hrs and $259. I'm totally floored...like totally. At 1.5 hrs I was ready to just quit for the day then got a show which made me rethink staying on. Thank fuck for staying on despite how slow it was.
I needed this high+ goal day in a bad way. It pays to STFO sometimes even on a day that is notoriously slow and bad for you.
STFO ladies...these men are out there who want you. FUCK...they want YOU!!!

Re: The "Just stay the fuck on" thread.
Piss off Streamate with your traffic! 65$ grr. Yeah, am moving back day time. I have 22 hours this week, I logged out am going to put 10 tomorrow and saturday too and have 40. Cannot reach 50. I just cannot. When i am online i tease non stop and try to engage with them. Anyways, i cannot do a night shift , my body hates it. So my lazy ass has to get up earlier and get on earlier. Best ladies, get them cash! Xx

Re: The "Just stay the fuck on" thread.

I feel this. I am often hard on myself for not being able to do long hours like I see many girls doing here. I honestly take my hat off to all of you who can do 6+ hours daily, but for me that rhythm is plain impossible to mantain. Last week I did my best to STFO for 25 hours to get my SM bonus, and I did, but the two days after I was EXHAUSTED and this week I've been way more sporadic with my camming.
It doesn't help that I'm not medicated for my ADHD at the moment, that I'm studying and working at the same time and that since the pandemic started I feel I have less energy than ever. I just try to be happy with knowing that I'm doing my best, but sometimes I just feel bad.
It upsets me especially because when I look at my averages, I realise that every year that passes I make more and more per hour, and that if I could consistently work at least 25h I would be rolling in it (relatively speaking). I would at least love to do 20 every week minimum. Can't wait to get a new psych assessment and meds and for all this pandemic thing to pass so I can focus on camming more and better, but in the meantime sometimes it's hard not to feel shit about myself.
I think other people (and often camgirls too) underestimate how demanding this job can be. Don't get me wrong, I don't dislike camming, but it's not easy and it's exhausting. My camming style is very engaging, smiley and "on", so I think that also drains my energy faster, but I don't know how else to cam, to be honest. It's just my personality.
Anyway, sorry for the novel, and good luck to all of you STFO this Easter. I'm doing a few hours today and then I have my best friend (who I've not seen since last September) staying with me for a few days. EXCITED doesn't cover it. Much love <3 xx

Oh hun I do feel for you, I know the utter frustration. It’s so real. I’ve had to take a break, after 6 hours I start to get eye ache and brain ache but I’ll try get on again today and see how I go. You can only do your best and what your body allows, that’s it! No point beating yourself up about it. Big hugs xxx

Re: The "Just stay the fuck on" thread.
Oh thank you to the lady who advised me about lighting triggering my brain ache / epilepsy, I had turned a ring light off I had pointing straight at me , it’s made a huge difference. Did 6 hours today, pretty non stop which was unthinkable before, I’d have had to take major breaks x
