Hi I'm Chibi and I have high anxiety about being in front of a camera. I'm just not ready yet so I've decided to work my way up to it. Read my reply to this tweet find out why I'm talking about this.

I've been streaming part time for about two years and I've had a few stream teams reach out to me about joining. Then when I tell them I don't use cam due to my anxiety, I've been told I have to be an on-camera streamer. Read my next reply.

The main reason I'm given is because most companies want you to show off their products and won't sponsor streamers who don't have a camera. I understand this way of thinking buuut-- read my next reply.

I have so much faith in creativity. So many people with mental health issues find ways around their obstacles. I feel that the stream team mentality should be a little more accepting of those with mental health issues. Liiiiike --- read my next reply.

There are other ways to promote, like photos on instagram, alerts in chat, using your voice, or even your art. Some of us feel comfortable making slideshows or snapchat/tik tok videos. Don't count us non-cam streamers out ;)
Thank you for coming to my Chibi Talk!
