    Default I have to go back to work this weekend

    And I really, really don't want to. I was supposed to be done dancing forever, and I was happy about that. but my student loan didnt go through as expected and unless $5,000 falls into my lap by Friday, I gotta go to work. Not only go to work, but I have to make about 5 grand in 3 days. Pressure much??

    I haven't danced in a few months, and I am beyond finished. The job descrption makes me ill to think about. Socialize with losers for hours at a time? Not only talk to them, but pretend I'm actually interested in them without gagging? Show them my breasts when they don't even deserve to look at my toenails? Well..with that attitude, of course I won't make money. But there isn't even a thrill of making money because I have an eviction notice on my door and cars that are 3 monhts behind. Thats what I get for not working for months. I am actually incapable of doing this job any longer. I used to be the girl who never drank at work. ever. Now I cant even getthrough a shift without a nice buzz. Last time I worked, I got too druink, sat at the bar all night and then left early. I talked to 1 guy. I just can't bring myself to do it.

    And you know how I've said I dont deal with pressue well? The pressure of needing to work or lose my apartment and car...well, that's some serious pressure. I can't function under pressure. I don't know what I'm going to do. I don't know how I'm going to be able to do this....and I'm scared.

    I was so happy to be released from the stress of dancing, and now that it's back, already I can barely function, just knowing what's comming tomorrow. I honestly don't know how I will manage to get out of bed tomorrow, eat, shower, put on stripper makeup (do I remember how even?) How am I going to manage to even get to work..let alone do a good enough job to make decent money?

    Help!!! How do I find my stripper mindset? I only need it back for a few days and it's gotta be locked in my brain somewhere. Like riding a bike, right?

    Maybe I'll come work with you at your club. We could motivate each other. You could always come try my club for a night, your 1st 14 house fees are free, that might take some pressure off.

    I really don't have any good advice though, sorry

    I know alot of people aren't going to agree with what I have to say, but if you need a few cocktails to do it, then have them.
    It's what helps you right now.......and even though it isn't exactly healthy or responsible....if it gets you through a shift....then just do it.

    yeah if its only for a couple days, go ahead and drink if it helps. fake being happy and itll make you in a better mood. do goofy stuff. itll pick your mood up, just force yourself.

    It would be great to not pay house...but that club is sooo far from my house and I really don't know that end of town at all, and it's not exactly an area I want to get lost in...

    OTOH....My club recently bought/started a topless pool at a casino. If we go and sit by the pool a few hours, we get a free house fee for that night at work. PLus, we can cultivate some customers while we're there....so I might do that. And maybe sitting around topless will help bring back my mentality...

    ^^That sounds fun! The attention from guys will get you pumped up, and you won't have the immediate pressure of hustling. That should help you ease into the stripper mindset.

    Also, for now, stop giving yourself the negative messages about the job. It would only drag you down to keep focusing on everything you DON'T like. When I've had to go to work and didn't feel like it, I would come up with two or three things I liked about work and keep reminding myself of them all day, any time I started to get anxious or upset.

    I would tell myself how grateful I was to have the opportunity to make so much money in such a short amount of time -- something that's just not possible for most people. I would remind myself how flattering it is to see that awe-struck looks on guys' faces that tells me how hot they think I am. I'd promise myself that I was going to have a good time, find the customers who appreciated me, and not waste time on the losers.

    You can come up with your own reasons. Just remember, every time you start to have a negative thought, resist it and remind yourself of one of your good thoughts instead. I know it might sound cheesy, but it worked great!
