I've had depression on and off for years. The other day at work a girl was saying that I was always so quiet - I'm not shy I'm just so depressed that sometimes it's hard to talk. I used to find that I could fake being happy really easily, but now it's getting harder. And if you're not happy it's hard to sell dances. People keep saying how pretty I am, and I think all the commenting about my body (even though its positive) makes me feel anxious and self-conscious.
I have also gotten more sensitive, like if a guy I like or dance for also dances with another dancer I take it personally. I took a break but I'm back as I need the money. Does anyone else have these problems? And what if anything do you do to make you feel better for work?
Thanks girls.

Remember that this is a job and to make it a carrere like any other field you have to stay focused and detach yourself emotionally, it's all about the money and if your good you can have all that you desire. The money has always been a drive for me considering what some people have to do daily to make ends meet, getting paid to party is cake. Take advantageof it before your shelf rack value x-pires and make the best of the job. Much love, I've been dancing for 11 yrs. and love it!!
