Most people: I love summer!!! :)
Me: I want to fucking cut my hands off
The invention of sweat glands: a mistake.
The invention of sweat glands that do not seem to understand that you’re not even remotely hot right now and would maybe just like to draw or play video games but now you can’t because you’ll probably wreck expensive electronics that you just finished saving up for or tear your a paper: an even bigger mistake.
Hey, I just wanted to let you know that your blog has helped me feel so accepted. I've had hyperhidrosis in my hands, feet and armpits since I was 7. I have been laughed at and ridiculed and for years I would cry myself to sleep. But reading your posts and other people's posts have made me realize, I'm not alone and there are so many people out there who understand what I'm going through. So I guess I just want to say thanks for helping me accept myself and helping me feel okay again❤
I’m so glad that this blog can make a difference to someone, I know how it feels and it pains me to know how horrible it makes you feel. Believe in me when I say you are perfect as you are and don’t let anyone else say otherwise. For years I doubted that myself, but I learnt that I can’t let it get to me. You sure are not alone, there are lots of people that go through the same thing everyday, probably even more than you think. I really hope you are better now, please don’t let it have that effect on you again. I’m glad the blog helped.
If you ever need to talk, you know where to find me! Lots of love xx

Having hyperhidrosis like
Is hot: *sweats*
Is cold: *sweats*
When you finally aren't sweating: Hey, my hands are- *sweats even more*
When is winter coming? I'm done with hot weather and sweat, thxs
More love and support for disabled/chronically ill people with illnesses/symptoms that are considered gross or embarrassing.
More love and support for people with urinary problems, with bowel problems, with flatulence problems, with incontinence.
More love and support for people with rashes or bumps or scaly skin or acne or any skin that’s somehow considered inferior.
More love and support for people with reproductive problems, with hormone imbalances, with unusual hair growth, with hair loss, with excessive sweating/hyperhidrosis.
More love and support for people with “deformities” and people whose bodies aren’t symmetrical.
Obviously this isn’t a complete list, so feel free to add on. But if any of this applies to you, you are not alone, you are not gross, and you are not ugly.
Date a boy who will hold your hand even if you have hyperhidrosis
Date a girl with hyperhidrosis, and hold her hands despite it
keith, with hyperhidrosis: having trouble opening a thing bc his hands are too sweaty
hunk: here hun lemme help you
hunk: opens the thing
keith, tearing up: i’d take a bullet for u…
Ah summer again soon, now we play the fun game ‘what shoes can I wear that keep me cool without slipping and breaking my neck’
i just googled the hyperhidrosis and i think thats what i have i just thought i was a sweaty person but sometimes it gets bad where it drips i kno thats tmi lol but its true i get so embarrassed i havent met angone who sweats alot too im to shy to speak to others about it
Omg lol same, it’s gross tbh I feel you but I sweat so bad it’s so humiliating and I get so much anxiety over wearing light clothing bc I am legit soaking under my arms for legit no reason!! I usually have to change my clothes or can’t wear things for too long otherwise they become soaking wet too but I have a phobia of touching hands bc I get really sweaty hands and feet too, I hate it I go through like 3 cans of deodorant a week 😩
thefeatherofhope replied to your post: Confession time: I hate that summer is coming, I…
I want summer to be over and it hasn’t even started. I’m the same with sandals.
Really? Good to know I’m not alone. And I know I want summer gone, I have hyperhidrosis and it’s hell. Hell, I sweat even in cold weather, but summer? It’s the WORST
i think one of the best things about having hyperhidrosis is that, i get to have that beautiful smudge effect when i do traditional art using charcoal and people are always so fascinated how i do that and i just go “the beauty of having hands that are literally the niagara falls” and they’re all “whut” lmao
Hyperhidrosis
To me, when it comes to greeting people, shaking hands, holding hands or leaving a wet mark on a surface or an important document, you would think that I was scared. That I was nervous. But that’s not the case. When someone reaches out their hand to greet me in a friendly manner, it lasts less than a second as they are so QUICK to pull their hands away, questioning to themselves as to what could be wrong with you. There’s the fright of someone always asking me ‘why are your hands so wet?’ And quickly, I come up with an excuse so people don’t think that I’m disgusting. I panic and lie in the process by saying ‘I just washed my hands,’ but in the back of my mind, I’m annoyed at myself for not telling anyone the real reasons. Telling them that it was a condition I was born with. A condition where I was born with sweaty hands and a sweaty head. I try to get rid of the wetness by wiping my hands on my clothes or by using a tissue to get rid of some of the sweat, but it NEVER goes away. It’s something that will stick with me, come sunshine or rain. My parents say it’s natural, but living with it is a constant pain. It’s perpetually. It will never change. In the winter, my hands can be unbelievably cold and still be sweaty. I fear the acumen that comes along with this all. I fear that everyone will be so quick to judge me for the problem I have. I just want to be able to touch a piece of paper or rest my hands flat on a desk without feeling the fear that I’ll leave a little wet mark. I’m tired of the constant acumen that comes from everyone. The constant judging looks and comments referring to me as ’filthy’ and ‘grungy.’ However, there’s an upside to this. My ‘filthy’ hands have allowed me to become creative and express myself through the use of art. And with the love from my friends and family, I don’t feel the need to shy away. They make me stronger. See the thing about me is, is that I despise talking about myself. I would rather listen to another person talk and make someone else laugh and listen to their secrets rather than telling anyone else my own. Writing this was the hardest thing I’ve ever had to write. Personally I hate talking about myself, I don’t believe this condition is major, but it is something that many people suffer from. It may seem like a pretty shitty issue to address, but I isolate myself because of it. I treat myself less than I should do! It may look like I’m made of stone on the outside, but inside I have a heart. (My condition is called Hyperhidrosis. The scientific meaning for this is, is a condition characterised by abnormally increased sweating, in excess of that required for regulation body temperature. Although primarily a physical border, hyperhidrosis can deteriorate quality of life from a psychological, emotional, and social perspective. It can be referred to ‘the silent handicap.’ by some.)
That says it all
someone: why are you sweating? it's cold out!
