10 Tips On How To Deal With Face Sweat That Will Change Your Life

[hyperhidrosishelpblog]

Hello! Feel free to send me any messages! I'm here to help!

I've always known I sweat more than other people. Because I have cerebral palsy, my mum thought the fact my feet used to leave puddles on the bed was because of that. It never really bothered me. Then my hands. I knew my hands used to sweat when I was around 10/11 because when I was in hospital, I used to slip and slide around the exercise mats. I thought it was normal. I remember being in year 8 and I high fived a boy and said "oh wow, your hands sweat like mine!" I was so happy but then he said "no, I've been out in the rain." That was soul crushing. My sweaty hands never bothered me much though until last summer. I live in Wales and we never have nice weather but when we did, my hands and feet literally cried. It was awful. I had to sit with my feet in water all day because for some reason, it slightly reduced the sweat in my hands. I then recently worked out that if I wear SOCKS, (on my feet, not on my hands ;) ) my hands don't sweat as badly. However, there's a flaw in that plan. In school, I have to wear tights and my hands sweat so badly. For example, If I put my hands on the table they leave a print. A friend who didn't know about it said "oh my god, can you catch that?! She touched me." (Nice) And my arm pits leave lovely patches on my school uniform. Hands, feet and armpits. Yay! The devil trinity. Now, in the past few months, hyperhidrosis has become the main focus of my OCD. (I suffer from that too). I think about sweating all the time. It's hard to be around friends because they all have dry hands and I don't. I watch as the write, their hands gliding smoothly over the paper. I watch as they mess around, touching each others arms and what not. I can't even cuddle my mum anymore because I hate the feel of her DRY hands against my wet/clammy ones. I guess because my sweating has become and OCD, any sign of sweating now is in my head, Hyperhidrosis. Because I'm sat in my wheelchair all day, I'm convinced my butt sweats. (Attractive!) but deep down I know that's because of the fact I'm SITTING DOWN so it will get hot. Thinking about sweating is the first thing I do when I wake up and the last thing I do when I go to bed. It's a living hell. And thinking about it makes it so much worse. There's no light at the end of the tunnel for me. Watching tv program's is hard too. Because their hands don't sweat and I can hear their dry hands rubbing together. I am receiving iontophoresis right now and it is helping but the tips of my fingers are still sweating badly and the sides of my hands.
