I am 29 and have been struggling with Hyperhidrosis for many years, I don't really remember it not being an issue.
I have tried many treatments some with no, little and good success. I intend to share my personal findings here. In no way am I an expert of any kind, this is just my personal journey.
I only experience excessive sweating of the under arms. It has always been something that has made me very uncomfortable and affected me in all social situations, or being in public in general. It did even bother me when I was by myself- the general discomfort of always having wet underarms. It didn't matter if it was freezing in the middle of winter or the hottest day in the summer or if I was standing in front of an air conditioner. I only owned tank tops or spaghetti strap type tops, I had never owned a t-shirt or anything with long sleeves. Even the tank tops would become soaked and it was embarassing and uncomfortable. I remember driving as being one of the worst things. I always had to drive with my arms up and elbows out, to air out my underarms. It just seemed like it took over quite a bit of my life- limited what I could wear, where I would go, how long I would go somewhere. It was always in the back of my mind.
This blog is for people with the same struggle and hopefully my journey can help you out.
