Hey Jadelady,
Don't get yourself so down...I've been feeling the same way as you lately...can't decide if I want to dance, cam or escort...the places I've been to 3 clubs to dance have essentially turned me down for one reason or another. :/
Do you work out at all?
I belong to Curves and when I feel depressed or in a shitty mood I'll go there, I feel alot better afterwards when I do. Even if it's just to get out of your bedroom for a 1/2 hour walk/run/bike whatever. Doing something and being active always works for me.





Solve the financial problems and it will help the other problems. You need to find a way to make more per hour so that it will free you up for actually having time to have a life.I probably couldn't make it on just my imlive earnings either. Get yourself splitcam (splitcamera.com) and work for more than one site at once. Helps so much during the slow times!
You can research different cam sites here:

There's a lot of girls on here that work on multiple sites or are independent. You really should try that.
Don't you ever sleep?
Not at night...that's when the stars have rather better things to do. They're coming out, shining, that sort of thing.

Thanks, guys. especially laurie and dee
I do shows independently, also.
i feel the same way you do at times, BELIEVE ME![]()
I do an AM shift, log off around 1pm, then come back on in the evening. The mid-day break is perfect to go out do errands, hit the gym, visit with family or just relax and watch a movie or get caught up on celebrity gossip lol
if you get tired/crabby/frustrated @ not making money/beggars/timewasters/ect IT WILL SHOW and u'll put out a "dont play with me" vibe. take a 5 min break when you start feeling anything other than your making moola mood, refresh and get back on. That short break will help and get your mind back where it needs to be![]()
Thanks for relating!Maybe I should break up my shifts again. I've been trying that.
and trust me, I NEVER let my actual moods show. lol I wouldn't get anywhere with that. I have a beautiful genuine smile on when I'm on because I see dollar signs over their usernames, or a few of them are actually fun. hehe


Hi jadelady, big hugs to you girl! I understand what you are going thru. It can get to anyone spending the whole day camming, and not doing anything else. If the money is not great on Imlive, try different sites simultaneously. Normally I do pretty decent on Imlive but this past week has been horrible. I was feeling a little depressed about it because i need my check to be at least $1000 next week. I hope to reach that but this has been a horrible week. I am on 2 other sites but was lazy with them in the past because Imlive took up all my time, but just getting back on them this week. As far as the love life is concerned I feel lucky to have someone great! I would suggest just focusing on more money, but at the same time...GET OUT THE HOUSE! It is too much to sit her all week long and just cam! Even though I live with my bf now, I can not wait to see him after 6pm. Not because I just miss him, but because I am alone all day, and feel bored. I do at times miss being around coworkers in the physical sense. But then I try to think of how great it is to work for myself. I hope you feel better![]()
Thanks josie, that means a lot to me. I think you're right, I just need to get out. I'm going to my girl friend's house today THANK GOODNESS. And I'm going to try other sites tomorrow. I'm almost approved on Webcams.com and On Her Cam. Thanks for the support.![]()




I hope it gets easier for you.Like others have said, once the money thing gets better, other things will, as well.


Uw Jadelady. Working from home can take a mental toll on you, wether it be cam, escorting, an advertising business, or the customer service jobs. The average person gets to get out the house to go to their 9 to 5 job, interact with coworkers, go to lunch, then get home. We don't get to do that. We work and live home, so most of our lives are just confined to home, and by Friday I am so over itIt gets really annoying at times to stare at my walls all day, but when I think of the call centers and other jobs I use to work, I wouldn't trade this for anything! Good luck to you for this coming week, and I'm wishing you and all the other cam girls lots of much needed money!

Jadelady - lets go out dancing!!




I'm sorry you're down. I suffer from depression and I hate that I am stuck in the bedroom all day every day working. I support our family so I need to work a lot. I am going to try to go for walks during the day to get more exercise and sunlight. I think that will help a little. Hang in there.*hug*
GUYS GUESS WHAT?!
I got voted Sweetest Legs on Imlive this week!! LOL! How did that happen..lol Well this just gave me a big boost!!! I'm ready to make a comeback.![]()

Good for you! Sometimes it's a little boost that really propels you into a better frame of mind. Here's hoping that you have more good things happen this week.![]()




heyyy sorry your having a hard time.. I know how it feels to be lonely! I am like the only young mom in my group of friends, ALOT of my friends have moved away for college, and having fun, going out at night, going to the river or beach and I see their face book pages and they look like they are having sooo much fun! and It sucks! I only feel like I have a few real friends, I do have a boyfriend and he knew I was a stripper, and then I started escorting when we were together, I hide it forever and it fucking killed me.. thank god we got over that hump... I havent really been escorting but Im about t go back to it for a short time! I need some new photos and I new place. I dont like indy, I just dont like it.. I want to be able to just go to work and leave, not worry about screening, so I looking for a new local agency.. local, is about two hours away! I took off some time from school but Im going back! I am going to try to escort and pay off my car, then I can get a regular job!! UGHH I cant wait!! I havent had a regular job in forever! I am about to start researching how to write a grant to start a business! Im going to finish school and have my business and then I will have sooo much time for my friends.. and you have us here so dont feel bad! hope you feel better soon!





Only thing I can add to this, and I hope it helps, is that profitable cam work depends on three things, only one of which has to do with the actual product you are providing.
1) How much the site advertises. This is the biggest as it's what draws the potential customer to the site in the first place.
2) How good your online hustle/online presentation is. This is going to be how you draw from the potential audience and get/keep regulars.
3) and third, way down the list, is how good a show you put on.
The only other thing I can say is don't escort when your head is in a bad place.
It is probably the most mentally taxing work in the industry you can do. If your head is already in a bad place its not the time to give escorting a whirl.
Wishing well...
Fiat justitia, pereat mundus.
BTW, while we are on the subject, is it needed to point out the obvious: That it is just possible that if you are willing to judge the worth of someone simply by what you read on a website about them it might say a whole hell of a lot more about you than it says about the person you are judging?
