I am working full time at a past employer's business. I quit camming again last year.
I could not rely on camming for my only income, it was me and my issues.
Kudos to the ladies and men that can earn a decent and sometimes great income doing it.
My anxiety gets crippling, and it prevented me from sticking out tough days on cam.
I still PSO on the side when I have the energy.
I've gotten more into meditation and taking better care of myself--to not let my thoughts in my head take over and created more anxiety.
I have a regular paycheck every week at the moment--I'm grateful to have money that I know will get deposited after Friday.
It's not like I'm making a lot of money, but I'm ok helping my former employer now with his business. He called me one morning and wanted to know if I was still looking for regular work. He is paying me above minimum wage and I am also learning new skills at his business. His wife is in the early stages of dementia, she still works there some days, but he has to either start doing her work too, or get to me or someone else to help.
I do the PSO work for extra income. I can find the energy to do it and make some extra money each week if I am able to do it a few nights during the week.
Not sure if I will cam again, but never say never. I could overcome my anxiety and take the plunge again. I liked the days and nights I made money on cam--my anxiety has been on ongoing issue for most of my life.
I've found great support here on SW in regards to my anxiety--and in regards to making those dollars and hustling.
Thanks to everyone who helped with straight talk advice
