Days when it is difficult to move? lazy? or depressed?
#24
ughh I have been offered to do a short stint as a dancer, I have worked with this organisation before and they have strict rules, NO alchohol , practice in day despite already knowing the routines.

Ans you have to look the part ( They have hair stylist and make up artist and Ive been told I scrub up well)


The only time I danced under the influence of drugs was when I had a legit inhury and used codeine that made me itch like mad, the routine was very easy so no one noticed.

I don't think I could dance complicated routines under anything. apparently price and m Jackson managed too.

on one hand the strict way we are treaed ( we have a bed time I kid you not) and having a clear stricture may jolt be out of this, on the other hand I may fail. I have a good reputation and some organisation contact me.
it in a way Ic can be cut throat, there are younger more flexible dancers coming on the scene.
I have lost a lot of my flexibility. oddly I don't feel nevous as I am busy concentrating on the dancing and I don't pay any attention to the audience or think that so many people are watching.
I no longer get much pleasure or excitement I see it as a task to get through.

to the outside world no one would guess I am really struggling. people assume I must have a lot of self confidence, which is NOT the case.

I sonetimes take certain meds and just knowing I have them there gives me some comfort. I think if I took them the temptation would be there. I also don't know who will be in the group.

some people get replaced during rehearsals or for not looking the part ( usually gaining weight) or for breaking the rules. its important to maintain a good reputation.

I'm thinking of explain this to my GP, as my mind is affecting my employment possibilities surely they would take more notice?

Also my bmi is 20, but because I dropped areound 40 pounds and gained it back quickly, so I don't have much muscle tone. I am skinny fat.

when I was better I had a bmi of 19/20 but I had an athelectic frame and a very toned and tight body.

I'm in 2 minds about this. I was thinking of using trams for an energy boost?

are there any other dancers on this board? I feel like I cant express the situation properly has many people don't know the lingo/ terms and difficulties etc.
