    Default Camming has helped me....

    Hey ya'll, new around here, although I have been lurking and reading for a long long time...I'm a trans girl from Kentucky, been camming for a little over a year or so, just wanted to share how it has helped me beyond financially....a month ago, this weekend, my fiancee, the love of my life, was murdered while at a party (he was tied up, strangled, put into a truck-toolbox and dumped into the river)...he was my soulmate and this has been the darkest most inexplicably lonely and horrific time of my life....most days I just cry in a pile on the floor and have no idea how I am going to be able to move on with my life...I tend to be an intensely private person, I cant bring myself to talk to people or ever really go out in public...but....I have been trying to get back into throwing myself into camming and it has been the BEST therapy I could ask for. I still am not able to broadcast for a couple of hours at a time, but during that time its a welcome distraction and a glimmer of hope....there's a lot to be said to be able to forget things, and be able to at least pretend things are normal, in front of a bunch of men who dont know or judge you....camming has, literally, saved my life and I hope it will continue to be an escape for me as I throw myself into my work. Has anyone else used camming as a sort of therapy or escape? Just curious if I am the only one utilizing it this way. I don't know if this topic is appropriate or not, if it's not, I'm really sorry. I just....kind of wanted to share my experience and...I don't know, TALK to someone who's not a guy trying to see me naked....

    Wow you poor thing I don't have the words that must have been horrific.

    Yes for me it's a total escape from my life it's a chance to be someone totally different and live a life on cam which I will never have and it's great fun while I'm doing it. I get where you are coming from I really do.

    Wow I can't tell you how sorry I am for your loss. I can't even begin to imagine how you're feeling but I'm glad that camming is helping you!
    I'm a PSO myself, but I offer one way skype shows so does that count? Lol. It is therapeutic, in a way; most of my custies are sissies, closet gay, or are into sph, so I get to unleash my domme side and get raunchy in a way that my partner and I can't, as we are in a typical Hetero relationship. Other than that, it's given me financial freedom and a lot more flexibility in general. When my bf was stuck without a car and had to use my truck? Go right ahead. When his nephew got into a sticky situation and I had to come to the rescue? Let me log off and get dressed. I can do things at the drop of a dime and still be employed.

    As a trans woman....its nigh impossible to find a handsome, strong, amazing man who will OPENLY date you....he was SO proud to introduce me to everyone as his wife, he was so fucking proud of me...and I know I will never find that again. Ten years he held my heart. Two weeks from moving into our first house together...its just been...a nightmare. His family turned against me and has been blaming me....but back to the topic...its really nice to just become this other person and lose yourself. I work on Streamate, and for the most part the guys on there tend to be friendlier than on other sites, and that is an immense help. I still have moments where I just start freaking out on cam, I did it in front of a custie earlier this week, but....I dunno, it's just been very therapeutic.

    Just wanted to say I'm sorry for what happened to your love dear. I too am from Kentucky and seen this on the news and have following the story closely. I use camming as therapy too, it's boosts your self worth in a way no one but a fellow cam girl could ever understand.

    Thank you, Cory. It has been a nightmare. Reporters tried to hound me for a bit at first, but I couldn't even bring myself out of bed, much less get on a camera for a fuckin reporter. Most days I do good to make it without a panic attack....but getting on cam has been good motivation to try and heal. He was SO supportive of my career choice and was always pushing me, always proud of me, always giving me his advice and shit.....I know he would want me to keep on, to be successful, to just....live. It's much easier said than done, though. But I'm trying. Next week I am going to try my hand at a full week of split-shifting (10 am to 1 pm, then again 5-pm to 8 or 9pm) and just throw myself completely into working.

    Seriously helped me survive through some tough crap.. To be honest I love how camming has made me appreciate the areas of my body that in my mind tainted. It has taught me self love, motivated working out, acceptance of seeing those areas as beautiful and ultimately patience.. Gives me the strength back that I lost by translating it through domination. I love being a webcam model so much and the adult community that comes with it!!
