Thanks ladies for all the help & suggestions. I applied them and slept from 6:30pm to midnight, ate, then back to sleep from 1am til 9am. Shit I feel better.
Taking today off.

Is this a place for mental health disorders as well? I've never really posted here because I didn't know if it was for more physical ailments. However, my mind is completely out of whack. Has been for almost a week now. I can tell because instead of being productive (like I was), I've been stuck in this "work night shift or day shift" bullshit spiral. And it's annoying because I literally JUST told myself days are better. For some reason I can't shake my anxiety and.....now idk...I honestly don't feel like it's really "me" that has an anxiety of not banking during the day. It's clearly possible, hell I was doing it and I was happier in all honesty with days, but idk I've allowed my worry to overpower my will to even log online. I've missed days and still haven't cammed at night. I'm gonna take a nap and listen to some sleep meditation and then work on some scripting, prayer, and yoga...hopefully that gets me back on track. I honestly realllllllly want to make days work and I knowwwwww they can/will/are. It's like when I'm doing it, I know it's worth it...but having a panic disorder and bipolar disorder really warp reality sometimes.
So with that, I'm sorry for the posts that have brought y'all into my mental roller coaster ladies.





^^You're in the right place. It's perfectly fine to post here. I do when my anxiety & dissociative episodes get bad.
I think you'll just have to see what happens with consistency. But in the mean time your self care plan sounds legit.

I completely relate to this. I'm not sure what happened a month or so ago but my mind has been stuck down the rabbit hole with the "when should I work" "how many hours" "what site" "maybe I should just stop camming altogether" "that's it! I'm quitting" "oh wait, maybe I haven't tried hard enough" Then the panic/anxiety and disassociation hit which makes it even worse.
The mind has ways of taking simple situations and making them catastrophic in our heads. I'll have a few moments of lucidity and can see things clearly and think "oh ok...this is a simple fix" then a half hour later all those questions I mentioned start whirling again.
My logical mind says to just do my 20 hours a week and treat it like I would have any other part time job. It's just a matter of getting my mind/body to calm down which can be tricky after weeks of chaos.
I have a history of panic disorder and depression so a job that is so unstable can trigger a lot of things.
Hopefully the self care you mentioned helps![]()





Idk if i've asked this, but has anyone here tried ketamine treatments?
I'm on so many meds and i'm just sick of making my life revolve around taking pills constantly. It has great reviews for pain management, depression, anxiety, & OCD. It's pricey, so i'd love to hear some first hand experiences.
most ketamine patients do it in a Drs care
as you become use to it you will require high doses more frequent
its highly unlikely ketamine will solve anything -
most ppl i know that take special k dont need it and abuse it but none of them asked their dr about it
hallucinations are real.
Ive picked up one girl twice from the hospital- both ketamine so her new name "ketamine Kara" =
I was given special k as a date rape drug. it will paralyze you
i use cbd





I was talking about having it done under a doctors care! I would never try it on my own!!!
cbd definitely helps, but my pain is starting to spike again (I have fibromyalgia) and I really don't want to up my medications more. My dr won't give me anything for the pain spikes and it's getting harder and harder to deal with on a day to day basis.





Ketamine was recently added to my pain pump in small increments and it is working wonders, not only for my pain but also my anxiety. They started with a minuscule dose to see how I tolerated it and bumped it up every month. I'm pretty happy with where it's at now but they will bump it again if I need it.
I think it's definitely worth a try for your fibromyalgia pain.




I wish I could figure out where I'd be the most comfortable camming. I hate having such anxiety with it. The bed gives me more room and freedom but the couch gives me less pain. I also am already getting anxiety over the coming months of cooler weather, even in Florida I turn the central heat on and the living room will be the warmest when I do that. For some reason the back bedrooms never warm up. I usually put an electric blanket under the comforter on the side I sleep on. I wish I didnt make things so much more difficult then they need to be.














Has anyone with light sensitivity tried acuvue oasis transitional contact lenses? I'm thinking about trying them out


Big shout out to all the 'sick girls', this thread helps me a lot even the simple solidarity of knowing there are others who are doing camming work and balancing that with health issues. I was supposed to hit and early afternoon shift but having done chores in the morning I am exhausted. gonna take a nap and try for an early evening shift instead.





^^Solidarity sister <3. Sounds like a good plan. Sending calm energy.

Did any of you had arm pain ? And how did you fix it? I think from using the mouse in a wrong position, sitting on my arm, now it hurts. It is my right arm. At first my elbow hurt when i extended it to max. After using some cream my elbow does not hurt anymore but it is more like a nagging pain that i know is there. Any tips on this ? I will go see a cariologist tomorrow to rule out any heart issues but i am kind of 90% sure it is because of my camming bad position i tried lately (resting on my right arm my body weight). I used to have wrist pains before because of the mouse but they would pass eventually, this pain is nagging and won't go away !
Any tips regarding poses on cam or any solutions are apreciated.
I am getting old, FUCK (i am in my laate 20's haha).





^^I woke up Sunday morning & almost cried. The pain in my knee, from sleeping in the position too long, hurt so bad I could barely move it. I had to go to the bathroom but couldn't move my knee it was in so much pain. I laid there for a couple moments then as slow as a praying mantis moved my right leg off the bed. It was excruciating!
Managed to make it to the restroom just 5 steps away, but sitting was another huge hurdle. Finished, baby stepped to my bed, & laid there for an hr sipping water & listening to 432hz healing tones.
It finally cleared up. Rest your arm, drink water, & it'll be ok.
Sending healing vibes.

anxiety, staying awake and depression! i am being treated for narcolepsy and was given adderall XR by my doctor, it makes it a bit better but its hard trying to keep my happiness.





If the xr doesn’t work, I found that quick release adderall works well, as does Ritalin (though it made my anxiety worse). It’s hard being happy with severe fatigue rules your life... but I hope the meds help! Maybe try finding a new hobby of some sort as well. Recently took sewing back up and I’ve noticed a huge improvement in my mood.




Anyone else suffer from Piriformis syndrome? Goodness its worse then back pain. I wanted to cam tonight but just cant. I cant even sit on the toliet without crying out from the pain of my butt cheeks pushing down on to the hard toliet seat. On the couch, I've had my butt out to the side or I've just gone ahead and laid down on my side. Walking hurts my butt, bending hurts my butt, every moment my butt cheeks just yell out in pain. I overdid it yesterday. I know I did. I usually space out the dogs grooming routine over the course of a week and I went ahead and stuffed all of it in to a few hours. I have no choice but to cam tomorrow. I cant take anymore time off but I'm worthless tonight. I cant push through this pain.





^^That sounds horrible. Sending healing vibes.

I had never hear of it before now! my gosh, that sounds awful... I hope you are feeling better today! idk if this helps, but my mother gets sciatica often and has found that the thc/cbd icy hot ointments work well to numb the pain a bit and muscle relaxers help if you can find a dr who will prescribe them (fair warning, they can make you sleepy).
