I've often thought about this question last year.
Camming and studying take time and in plus there is the personal life (partying, acyivities...).
Camming takes a lot of mental energy, you have to socialite with peoples who can be annoying, rude even awful. Probably some of them talk about their life and you can have revelations very not pleasant.
So how you do to focus on your studies after?
I'm not making academical researches it's just curiosity.
 
Hi there! Full-time student here (gagging noises). The way I stay sane despite having to juggle schoolwork and sex work is to stay organized and keep a regimen going. I'll have designated time to tackle assignments and then time to film, cam, etc. I find a planner extremely helpful as well because I have my whole week laid out in front of me. I also always always always make sure I get enough sleep!
 
Tears. Many tears. Also ... I don't socialise unless it's a school function or work related. I don't go to parties, events or gatherings for the hell of it. I dumped all my friends. loool

I have a near perfect GPA, with the amount of time I had to put in to school I had to cut back on work hours and outside contact with members so that I could successfully get in the hours I needed with school to feel confident enough to meet my expectations.
 
Personally, I have a lot of mental strength and ambition when it comes to furthering my careers. I had a planner to schedule my classes, internships, phone sex calls, camming, sugar date appointments, virtual escort dates, and etc. I socialized with my old friends and vanilla career associates. Then I complete Bachelor's, Associate's, and Master's degree within record time.:cat:

It's really about staying organized for me. I'm pretty driven when it comes to my studies/career, so I know that no matter what, I need to get that shit done.

The more organized and scheduled your day-to-day life is, the easier it'll be to manage everything. If for example, you cam from morning until noon, then after that get right on to the next thing. Even if I'm tired, if I choose to focus on how drained I am physically or mentally, it'll just make things harder for me.

Like anything else you'll adapt over time and get better and handling the extra workload.
 
I think studying and working is always draining no matter what kind of job you have. I also think it always requires some sacrifices as well as badass time management skills and I have a lot of respect for everyone who’s able to pull it off.

I’m going back to school to get another degree in autumn and this is actually one of the reasons why I started camming. I’ve found that I get much more done when I have a variety of tasks that require different kinds of “mental energy”. Apart from the occasional meeting with clients and some workshops I hold, my vanilla job revolves around research, coming up with strategies and writing. It basically requires the same cognitive resources as studying and those resources are limited. Camming is draining on an entirely different level and while it is exhausting and sometimes frustrating, the social interaction and some of the more creative/hands-on tasks like shooting photos/vids also give me energy.

For me the key is variety. Unless there’s a super close deadline, I find it difficult to be “intellectually” productive for more than 6 hours/ day whereas I can put in much more hours (and I’m happier) when I’m working on vanilla AND camming related things.
