Thank you in advance to anyone who reads this as I know it's a bit long, I've been putting off posting this but it's becoming more of an issue as I go along so I'm hoping maybe someone can advise and point me in the right direction or maybe at least relate.
I started camming earlier this year and went full time in October. Since then, over the past 4-6 weeks I've started to progressively do miles better, my earnings are increasing, I'm getting loads busier, I'm getting loads more shows and sometimes much longer shows but it's all sort of progressing at a rate that I wasn't really prepared for and certainly wasn't expecting.
Obviously it's a good thing that I'm doing better and I'm so grateful, but on the other hand I'm finding the busier I'm getting, the more exhausted I'm getting. This is to the point that I'm working 3 days, smashing it and then I well and truly CRASH. Last week I was so mentally wiped out that it took me 3-4 days to recover.
This week, I worked again Fri-Sun, then same again happened on Monday, I managed to get some hours in on Tuesday fine but yesterday I crashed again and now I feel like I'm borderline burning out. It sounds dramatic but twice this week I've literally started crying for no reason lol!! Which isn't like me and I know it's cause I'm just so mentally wiped out. I can barely function!
The way I'm working right now doesn't feel sustainable and I don't know what to do to start getting the situation under control. I actually really love this work, so the worst thing for me would be to end up making myself poorly through it or driving myself to hating/dreading what I'm doing.
I nearly always work on 4 sites at once, 3 PPM and 1 token site, so I'm always in free chat on two.
Should I maybe increase my rates somewhere? Should I alter my hours? Should I drop a site, or maybe work the token site separately? Should I put more time into creating passive income so I can relieve some pressure?
I'm sure this will all become more natural and routine to me as I become less new but at this moment my brain is fried. I feel like it's finally gotten on top of me and I'm at a major loss at what to do next.
Thank you again for reading x
