Im going to see a counsellor on Tuesday next week but im just looking for peoples views on another one of my personal issues.
I have been a sex worker on and off for 8years. I have only ever worker in legal, upmarket establishments. Ive never been a street worker OR addicted to drugs. I live a drug free life.
I really enjoy my job. I never wake up on a monday morning and groan because i have to work. I wake up with a smile on my face and cant wait to get there!
Many sex workers end up in the industry after being abused/raped by men. They do it as a sign of taking their power back. Alot also do it to support their drug habits. I on the other hard have fallen into it for none of these reasons. I started it because the idea of it completely turned me on.
Im not only a sex release for my clients but im also like a counsellor. Most of my clients have their own personal issues and thats why they see me. With 70% of them, i dont even sleep with them. They just want female interaction.
Some people ask me how i can enjoy seeing fat old, yukky looking men and to be honest, they might do just one thing that turns me on and then i start thinking about how gross they are and believe it or not but it turns me on even more. When im at work i feel like i have a purpose.
Dont get me wrong, i am not an idiot. Im quite a smart person, Working in the sex industry for me helps my addiction - sex.
I love my job...is that ok? what are your thoughts? ( im asking i kinda want an idea what the counsellor might say)
So you are happy with everything you do. So what's the question being asked here? Are you bragging about your lifestyle or actually asking a question?
My life is not what I would call brag worthy material. I came here questioning how I think. This is not a waste of everyones time just so I can get attention.
It does appear that you are quite fond of your life, as NK asks, what is it that you want to know?
In my opinion, this is no way for a seemingly smart young lady to make a living...let alone enjoy it.
You mention that what you do is bad for THEM, that is quite a selfish statement and I can only pray that others do not hold the same true when dealing with you.
Also, you mention drug use as a one in while thing to escape. Understand that an addiction to sex is just as serious as an addiction to substances, in my view you use sex everyday as an escape. You place yourself in the company of strangers and then have sex with them, not a very cautious approach.
I respond because you ask if this is all o.k and I really think it dangerous and unhealthy, just my opinion.

What are you referring to in this comment? Im not sure which post comment you are talking about.
HI Ex - I've no problem pushing the button, it's getting the exact phrase that gives me trouble. I'll go read the help board like any responsible member would.
Why do I choose have a line of coke on my birthday? Why not! I think doing drugs once year will not interfer with my mental or physical well being. It reminds me of being a nuaghty 16yr old.. why not have a little bit of naughty fun on your birthday when your surrounded by all your closest friends and letting loose! Drugs are not even an issue in my life, so i dont think they are in any form related to the topic at hand.
I agree, absolutely. More than most things, the way a person responds to drugs, and the differences between particular drugs, and the consequences and risks involved in using them is a highly individual matter. All generalities are wrong in some instances. For some people, a glass of wine with dinner is a ticket to the gutter and a ruined life. Others can enjoy a couple of drinks a day and it's just one of life's little pleasures, and it's the same with most other drugs. There are, of course, some substances that are so powerfully addictive that almost everybody who tries them becomes hooked, so discretion is important. But it's just plain wrong to say that all drugs are highly damaging and equally dangerous for everybody.
I've smoked pot for almost 40 years, and I have a drink or two almost every day, and I have no doubt at all that these things make my life better, not worse. But I also know that they (well, alcohol anyway) can be horribly destructive for some people, so I respect the differences between people in these matters. And this all has nothing to do with the topic of this thread, so I'll have nothing more to say about it here. Anybody who wants to discuss it further should start a new thread.

It seems pretty obvious to me that "THEM" refers to her critics, not to her clients, i.e., if those who disapprove of what she does were to do it themselves, it would not be "a good life for THEM". She clearly doesn't think that what she does is bad for her clients.
To be honest, it just seems that you posted this to get reassurance that everyone thinks what you do is a great job, safe, helps others, and is appropriate. No. It seems that you are just seeking approval.
