For those who don't have it and say "it doesn't sound that bad", its terrible. You isolate yourself from places you are prone to start sweating: like crowded places, outside even etc. But this greatly affects your decisions on where you wanna go. I've skipped lots of party's and summer activities because of my extreme sweating. The terrible thing is, when you start sweating its almost impossible to stop (for me at least), I didn't get a summer job 2 years in a row because of this now.
I like that you share this!! I have hyperhidrosis everywhere (feet, armpits, hands) and I did an Iontophorese-therapy! Maybe you heard of it- if not, try it! It really helped me!! Good luck, mate!
It freakin' sucks to have sweaty palms - I can't text - I can't hold a bat - I can't do minute things - I have to wipe them every time in any fabric - My hands slip off the steering wheel while driving. - It brings social anxiety for no reason. - I have to change clothes/socks more frequently than others. - I cannot make a firm handshake , and it definitely has a negative impression in professional life I am definitely going to have a surgery soon. RIP Hyperhidrosis!
I know how you feel most people sweat on their underarms. I swear on my hands to my feet and unfortunately my thighs. I used to sweat really bad in my underarns strangely it stopped after highschool. Now that I'm older i still deal with my hands, feet, and thighs. Just know it's okay. I know how it feels to have your hands basically cause it's own rain shower. I use cloth wheels so it doesn't slip while I drive. Try bathing in baking soda it helps my dad has hyperhydrosis an it makes a big difference. Stay strong because at the end of the day atleast you have hands an atleast it's not a life or death disorder. I hope I helped some :)
I know exactly how this feels. Sometimes I can't even do my hair. I hate the summer, bc I have to wear sandals or go barefoot. I stopped drawing. I quit dancing because we started to dance barefoot. I try to always wear socks inside no matter how warm it is. I also have a kind of neurodermatitis on my hands but I can't use something against it, it just makes me sweat more.
+Pill Box u cheeky shit. I imagine u too have it as why else would you be watching? yet you insult others. Why do people think it's ok to talk to people online this way? U are the archetypal troll. i truly believe folk that troll vulnerable people probably have inferiority complexes. They are insecure, have maybe been bullied badly, hence them trolling people randomly. They can't assert themselves in a real social environment, are often dominated, not noticed or too afraid to stand up for themselves, they engage people online as there are no physical consequences from insulting, offending and trolling. it empowers them and acts like a psychological substitute for dominance assertion. in laymans..... they are weak in real life so they get a buzz from trolling.
+Abi Johnson Literally, my computer's mouse is soaking wet because of this crap right now. This is one of the reasons why I don't want to hold my GF's hands.. huhuhu
I'm sweating too but only in school. At home I can wear anything what I want, but when I go with my friends shopping or do anything else with friends, I'm starting sweating. I think it is because I'm scared that I sweat and so I can't stop think about it. It's hard because I wanna wear colourful clothes too, but I don't wanna anybody see that I'm nsweating. But I know that I'm going to stop sweating the most important thing is to not think about it. You just make yourself stress. You have to say: Today I'm going to be dry under my armpit
I bought myself today the dove maximum protection and it should be really good! You can buy it everywhere and it costs 6€ i think that's okay my friend uses it too and she aaid it's really good...whe has sports in school and she wore a long arm shirt and ut was really hot but you couldn't see anything! Hope it works at me too
i don't really sweat at home too. i heard that that's because you are calm when you are at home. i'm using syneo and it works really well. but i'm from germany so i don't know if it is available in your country
i finally got myself to google what the hell was wrong with me and now im sitting here sobbing ... since i was 12 years old i have felt like a freak i rarely let people hug me or shake hands with me. i only ever wear black oversized clothes and this has been my life for so long. and now on this day i know what is wrong with me... i cant stop crying. you have no idea how happy i am to see a person talking about a thing a can relate to so much. espacially the thing about seeing others wear colored shirts that one hit right home, thats me every day of my life... thank you btw im now 19
There are several tips to try take a shower often choose loose clothing. consume plenty of water and sage tea. dont have spicy foods and caffiene. (I learned these and the reasons they work on Sebs Sweat Blueprint website )
Martin Ba I do all those things everyday and trust me, I think mine is an emotional trigger? Like if I'm feeling nervous, all of a sudden my hand is a puddle of sweat.
Lord Lazy yeah thats what i thought mine was at first but i think that what really happened was i was nervous that i would swaet and so i just always thought "dont be nervous" and i mean it still happened. i use the deodorant now and god has it changed my life!! i can wear pretty much whatever i want (not really a tight top kinda girl i have found out). honestly really try it it changes lives:-)
They should have a dating site for ppl with hyperhidrosis lol. It would make life so much easier if the other person already knew you had it. You wouldn't get nervous trying to hide your condition and would be way more comfortable. I'm seeing a lot of pretty woman on here. But sadly I'll never meet em. Hopefully there will be in the future , it would make dating situations 10x easier. Just a thought from a 23 yr old male suffering badly from this stuff. :'(
My daughter has it bad on her hands and feet. She can't wear flip flops/sandals and feels like she isn't normal because of it. She had a week of ballroom dancing and everyone commented on it. NOBODY MAKE FUN OF THOSE WHO HAVE IT.
Bless your daughter i know how she feels I always get people commenting on it I have it full body I know how hard it can be if you can get to a GP and ask for some tablets I'm on oxybutinine it's a slow releasing medication which really does help
It's so nice to see that there are a lot of people living with Hyperhidrosis, not just me alone. I started sweating excessively in 6th grade, but I thought I was just going through puberty. In 8th grade it was so bad that I wore jackets EVERY day and I still sweated through them. It was humiliating. For a while this controlled my life, I was always worrying about having to raise my hand or having someone see my sweat stains. It had been an ongoing battle with my mom about taking me to the doctor to have this checked out, but finally my mom gave in less than a week ago. The doctor confirmed that I do, in fact, have Hyperhidrosis and she gave me a prescription for an antiperspirant called DrySol and it's been working amazingly! I suffered in silence for four years before learning that hey, sweating through your shirt every day isn't normal, and now that I know that Hyperhidrosis is a real disorder, I'm conquering it :)
I literally have sweaty palms all the time, and it's usually triggered by my anxiety. But I noticed sometimes my palms sweat for literally no reason. So this helped a lot thank you!
+savanah rose I'm bursting to get social on rainy days, it helped a lot, they didn't even notice that my palm is sweating. But it sucks on sunny days. Saddest part is I cannot hold a girls hand for too long with this disorder.
***** actually my anxiety triggers first, so, not a chance to go out. Maybe in a room where i'm comfortable i can hold her hand. The same state lyc you to get away with many people. RIP social life
+savanah rose...Me2. For me its the hot weather, excitement and anxiety. And my palms and feet are always ice cold and sweaty. Sometimes water pours out like a tap,Lol. So used to it now.
I am so happy this isn't just me!!! When I'm shopping I have to ask which shirt will make me sweat less. Sweat drops down my arms when I'm sitting at home doing nothing and it's so aggravating. I'm going to try this and it'll be the best day of my life if it works haha
Sergeant Sass I had hyperhidrosis as well! I recommend watching the video on the link I share with you, the guy is a genius: ede06cb99q-z5o9en2o-5m7u8d.hop.clickbank.net/?tid=UA-cam
Sergeant Sass same I was sitting down once just on the computer and my armpits weren't touching my cloths so my arms were out and so I was sweating so much I felt a stream of sweat crawling down my arms and I could see it was a little off white and the stream was too. XD that was my deodorant sweating off my arms. Ik TMI but what also happens is I will get a huge white circle of deodorant around my arms by the end of the day and I don't know how to control it since I use baking soda under my arms to prevent sweating and odor.
I haven't told anybody. I only wear really large shirts to avoid touching my pits with my clothes. I hate myself wow. what even is deodorant supposed to do? it does nothing lol. Not even antitranspirants if they are from the drugstore
Don't hate yourself! Sweating is something you can't control at all, and if people are judging you because of it, it's their problem. It's alright girl ❤️
Yeah, I know how you feel, just be open to your closest friends and family, and it will make things a lot better. don't worry about others judging, every one including them has something the are self conscious about. be happy, enjoy life, and let's all cope with this together.
hyperhidrosis Main Cause reasons : 1- depression 2- low self esteem 3- Shyness 4- inner grief ... 5-self humiliation(self hating) in Comparing to others and other Subjective problems ...
for me its almost everything. feet, face, pits, back, hands. i only wear dark colors and im waiting for the train right now and im drenched. fuck the summer
HARAMBE My Love same mate, my main problem is my pits and back..sometimes my hand..actually i'm typing this right now with sweaty hands xD :((( MY LIFE SUCKS :(((
i have hyperhidrosis. I'm 13 years old and I was born with it. I have it on my palms and feet. I'm really conscious because the people around treated me differently (except my family and close friends). I'm scared of shaking hands, high fives, holding hands etc. It's really hard to explain this to other people but knowing that there are so many other people going through the same thing as me, It gives me some confidence.
This is so relieving, my brother and I have always suffered with sweaty palms all day, every day. I also struggle with underarm and foot sweating. My mum took us to the doctors when I was around 6 to see if anything was wrong but they brushed it off but 9 years on its a big problem for me and has been for a few years now as I cannot shake hands because I feel as if they would judge me because of my palms, it's a huge problem also as we have to wear white blouses for school so in the summer I can't take my blazer off because of sweat patches. I googled like "why do I always sweaty palms" and this was a suggestion and I persuaded my mum to get me a doctors appointment sometime in the near future as it stops me from doing certain things, thank you so much for making this video, it was so helpful even if I am two years late on it.
I have it as does my older brother (somewhat).. I have read it effects families in clusters so they are right about something on this un ventured medical condition.
I hate hyperhidrosis. I've had it for a few years now, and I know that that doesn't sound like a lot but I'm only 12. At school in the halls, or in class I take every chance to avoid touching other people. Sometimes they get so sweaty that they drench my desk with little water droplets. And there has never been a time when there where not sweaty, or cold, or clammy, clammy is the best they can get. But that's not the worst part, pit stains. Pit stains are the worst part. Everytime I wear one of my favorite outfits, or just an outfit. In the car when I'm going to school they have already soaked through so I put my hoodie on for the entire day. It doesn't take much, in just 30 seconds I could have drops running down my sides. And my feet to. There always cold, and freezing if I'm not wearing shoes. And they only sweat cold sweat, so at night in bed my sheets get drenched in cold sweat and it makes it hard to go to sleep. I don't get it. Like why do I have to have it. No body eles has enormous pit stains on each side of there shirts. No one eles has to avoid touching propels hands, or in that case anything. No one eles has to deal with it. And I've tried everything. I've literally duct taped cotton balls to my armpits before just to last a night because I was going to the movies with my boyfriend. One time I put panty liners on the inside of my shirt to keep the sweat stains away, they sweat through within my first hour class. I've tried so much and it's hopeless. My parents don't even want to help me because they don't care.
I know how you feel trust me Ive been there !! but I found a cure for dry hands and feet ! if you want more information about it please feel free to contact me on my email- reviewsforyou100@gmail.com also you can check iontoderma.com they really changed my life ! their machine stopped my sweating completely if you want I can give you a coupon code for 25% off on this machine , I swear its real , read all the reviews on their site and youll see for yourself
don't worry you will be use to it (maybe) in about 20 years lol.. have had since I was a kid as well (maybe about 10 it come on).. am nearly 32 now. palms and feet effected mostly.
Perspiration is regulated by the Sympathetic Nervous System, which controls about five million sweat glands in the body. Most common body sites affected are the underarms, palms, feet and forehead. When your body temperature rises, hot blood flows to your brain, which sends signals to increase the flow of blood to your skin and start you sweating.
I suffer from hyperhydrosis and watching this video and reading these comments brings me so much joy. I've cried myself to sleep so many nights because of my sweaty hands. High fiving people, shaking hands, touching people in any way. It's terrible. Most people don't realise how much this condition can effect people's daily lives. I hope that this video (and many others) will inform others about this disorder and let them know that it hard. It's really hard. Thanks xxxx
I have hyperhidrosis since i was a baby. I never knew life without it. It affects my hands, underarms and feet. My sweating is so severe but i've learned to live normally with it. I can say that it used to bother me so much when i was younger, i can't write without having the paper wet and i cant go out wearing slippers or sandals. I also have to choose what i will wear so that the sweating won't be too obvious. I used to be so embarrased about it. People notice it especially my hands. But now, i feel ok with it, i have lived all my life with it and i feel totally normal. My advice to those who have it is that you don't need to be embarrassed, just live your life to the fullest. Just think that we are still lucky we are complete, we have hands, legs and feet and etc, sweat is just sweat even if it is severe, we don't need to make it a big problem. Just hold your hankies all the time and dont wear slippers, and everything will be fine. :)
I have the same problem in all 3 places..i learned to live wit it also but i really wish i could reduce the amount of sweat on my hands its sooo annoying..everywhere i go i have to carry a paper towel or cloth in my hands to keep wiping them off..i tell my mom how much it effects my life but she doesn't think its a big deal,i think because she dont understand
uniQueShaii try botox. I get it for free , and it's 90% stops the sweating. For me it only lasts 3 months. I have ir severely. But i get my injections every 3 months for free. And, I'm super active, since I was so inactive all those years i had it. I'm sorry to hear your mom is not supportive but that's okay, you are here now in this forum. Email me for more info on how to get free botox/injections. And, no i don't work for them. I'm just a long time sufferer from this condition whom wants to help out ;)
Siavash Golzar Hi, call 18004426869 . I believe you press 3#, and 6#. It's called the botox reinburesement program. Let them know your problem. You have to show proof of hardship. A simple letter can di it with your signature saying you are incapable of working under these conditions. Which is true. I just got my botox injections, I was so inactive for so long, I have 2 jobs that I love, and I'm self reliant. It's wonderful!! Try it. If you have any questions let me know. Also you need to find a dermatologist that does this procedure. I live in NYC, so it's easy to find one here. I go to the dermatologist center in Bayside Queens.
Cecilia Greco If you start now , you can be sweat free in 2 weeks. They take about a week to process paperwork and overnight ship medication. But you need to find that awesome doctor that will find out if insurance covers the injections themselves. I have welcare, it covers 100% of the injection fee. Which is $300 each hand. But i hear that's a special price for me. I mean, i went in there crying years ago. So they really helped me out. If you really want it, you have to have other peoples sympathy. You need to find yourself a great doc. And if you live in nyc, go check out Dr.Zuckerman or Phoebe at the dermatologist center. They are my life savor.!! For real!!
Thank you sooo much for this video. I have been dealing with hyperhidrosis for about a year now but I didn't know what was wrong with me. It was so embarrassing for me because my friends would walk up to me and say u have huge sweat stains. I'm not a confident person so that was horrible:( My hyperhidrosis started getting worse and worse and eventually I just wore black. After I watched this I felt MUCH better that I was not the only one and I got up the courage to tell my mom about it and she really just didn't understand what I was going through. And so she finally ordered certain dri the other day. I have literally been wearing it for like a week but it has already been life changing. After one day I was like ok this might work and the next day I cautiously wore a pink shirt and I was fine! I feel so much better thank u so so so so much for this video :)
I sweat from my forehead so bad when I get nervous or when i go out with my friends to the mall, I'll start to sweat. Even when I'm having a conversation one on one I'll get sweaty and just ignore the other person trying to control it. I just signed up for college And have oral communication class. Idk how I'm going to do it lol.
I've commented probably on your last three or four videos, but honestly each time I just fall more in love with your hair! Looking more and more stunning with each video and such an inspiration. Thank you for being you!
I'm so sorry to hear that! Don't let people like that get to you. I have the disorder as well and I've dealt with bullies like that. Just know you're not alone.
It's nice to see a popular UA-camr talk about this :) I've had this forever and everywhere, but my hands and feet are the worst. Hands are the worst because there are so many things you can't do - write across a paper, play instruments, shake hands to greet people, hold hands with your loved one, even handing money to the cashier is an embarrassing moment. Sweaty feet just means I can't wear slippers, open shoes or heels. Driclor worked for me and changed my life too! Can't live without it.
I probably have this too :( I always sweat and because of the sweat you can get body odor too even if you wear deodorant and take showers daily. I used to get bullied a lot as a kid for this :( Sigh don't worry, if you have this you are not alone. It's unpleasant but what can you do? It is what it is and you just have to look past it. There are ALOT of WORSE disorders out there that you could have had but thank God you don't.
Alexis Lexie Hi guys I see many are frustrated with hyperhidrosis. I also had but not now. You can cure it naturally without medicines. Just drink 3 to 5 glass of ginger juice regularly and by doing correct exercise for blood circulation, u can cure it within 4 months. You can see the difference in 15days. You can add lemon and honey with the ginger juice. I used to drink 2 glass in morning, afternoon and night, that is 6 glass per day. Try to boil and drink always for instant result. And I see many deleting my messages, so if u got cured just forward the message to all. Just try and see the magic. Bye hyperhidrosis. Don't worry we are not cursed god is with us, just try it. Bye.
After over 10 years (basically my whole life) of dealing with hyperhidrosis, I am finally going for a Botox consultation the day after tomorrow :) I have tried not worrying about it, used topical antiperspirants, gone to a psychologist for the intense anxiety that accompanied it, and I have finally realized how much it's holding me back from my day to day life. I've used Drysol (20%) for years, and although it worked at first, I now have eczema on the back of my hands so I can't really use it anymore plus it is not always effective for me. I just want anyone watching this video now as I first did a few years ago to understand that it doesn't define you and I hope that all of us will one day not have to deal with hyperhidrosis anymore. I always tell myself, it could have been worse. I could have had cancer, or some other terminal disease but I was dealt this card instead and now it's up to me to choose what I do with it from here onwards.
I sweat ALOT. It's so embarrassing because I feel like I look gross or I smell odd. I don't know if it's a medical condition but I could be sitting and I start sweating whether it be in class or just talking with friends. Non air conditioned classrooms are a bitch (although it doesn't matter because I still will sweat). Even in the winter I sweat in my winter coat. I hate going to my friends houses because they are always hot, causing me to sweat. I was at a friends house the other day and My skin was literally WET and shiny with sweat, while they were fine. My feet and hands aren't even a problem, It's the rest of my body
You're one of my favorite UA-camrs & it is so comforting knowing you go through the same thing I do :) I also only wore black clothing in high school due to my pit stains. I never realized that's why I dress the way I do! This is so relatable and honest, thanks for sharing. Wish I heard this years ago.
Everytime i go to school especially early in the schoolyear, i am scared to write cause everytime i write, my hand sweats from the heat and my paper will become wet. I hate it.
That's me too. Everyday I think this hyperhidrosis is taking over my life . For example I can't wear any bright colors anymore ,just black. And now my paper gets wet and now that I'm starting middle school it's gonna get worse.what starts my sweating is that scratching noise,humidity,worried, You know there's a surgery for this annoying sweating to go away if I'm starting to sweat I have to wear a jacket if at school or change my shirt at home when righting this my hands feet armpits (yea I said armpit and I am not ashamed)and nose (yea nose) .i wear socks and rarely wear gloves CURSE YOU HYPERHIDROSIS YOU RUINED MY LIFE THANKS A LOT 🖐🏼🖐🏼🖐🏼🖐🏼 CANT WAIT TO AGE AND GET RID OF THIS STUPID SWEATING
+Lloyd Ramjit a lot of people have it, let's all work together and stay strong to help cope for the moment, be open to your family and friends and they will make you feel better. hope this helps, I know it sucks.
I love that you were able to talk about this. Even if none of your viewers struggle from the same issue, it's so necessary to know that you're not the only one who has a 'weird thing', you're not a freak, you're not disgusting, and I wish that more people would talk openly about these kinds of things. Then we could all just relax and stop feeling like we're somehow inadequate. By the way, your hair and makeup are stunning in this video! Such a beautiful person :)
Thank you for sharing your experience! :) I have had the same problem since about 8th or 9th grade too and now I'm almost 23. I sweat constantly, when it's hot or cold, when I'm nervous or calm. It's soo annoying and embarrassing. I usually wear darker coloured shirts because I don't want people to see my sweat stains.
It's really hard to go shoping once you sweat a lot bc you can only buy what you know it won't leave the huge sweat stains when u use it so that's my biggest problem and when i am at school for a long time i can't move my arms bc i'm sweating a lot it's so bad but thank you for sharing your experience really helped me !! I'm sixteen now and i thought this would go away but it didn't oh well i'm probably go to a doctor one day
I've never heard of it, but you really explained it great! I hope people who do have it and are ashamed don't feel that way anymore and they can find ways to deal with it. (:
I wear all black too. If I wear any colours I make sure the patterns disguise the sweat stains. Sometimes I'd like to wear something else but I'm not brave enough unless I'm home or with my bf (who doesn't care at all). I've tried every medication but they don't work because my hyperhidrosis is in almost my whole body (feet, hands, underarms, butt, back, stomach).
+kawaiipeach Hi! I have the exact same situation as you do, excessive sweating not just on my armpits or hands but my entire body especially my back, armpits and legs (which is why I also wear only black or patterned shirts like you). I wanted to ask you which methods you've tried so far and if any of them worked even in the slightest? I'm asking you specifically because most people seem to have this problem only on their hands, feet or armpits and not in their whole body. So I'd really appreciate it if you'd reply to me. Thanks!
+OmerFY Hi! Sorry for the delay. First I tried solid and liquid aluminium antiperspirants (with a doctor prescription). The first one didn't work at all so then I moved to the liquid one that was stronger. It kind of worked but only on my armpits. I was very happy but a couple of years later I developed three breast cysts so I had to stop using it because it's thought to be related to breast cancer. Then I was thinking about the surgery to get the HH out of my hands and feet. I got an appoitment with a surgeon and I was commited to get that surgery done but when he explained that it would not only make the other parts of my body sweat more but it could also not work at all, then I decided not to do it. Then I was put under hormonal pills since after a regular check on my doctor he found out that I have a thyroid disorder. The pills were suposed to help at least a little bit with my HH but it didn't happen even now that my thyroid is better. I been on the pills for almost a year. I've also tried natural home remedies for the armpits such as apple cider vinegar and homemade coconut oil/baking soda deodorant. Those work for the smell but not for the excesive sweat. For the rest of my body I've just gave up because non of the methods above work. I just wear all black or clothes with prints that can mask the HH. I work at customer service and for work I simply have a little towel, handkerchief or papel towels for my hands and wear black tops and black pants every day. I've been suffering from this since I was born and now I'm 27 so I think that after a while you just get used to cope with it. If you've tried something that worked, please let me know! Sorry for my english (not my native language).
kawaiipeach Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately I haven't found a method that works for me yet but I'll let you know if I come across something that works. Until then, black clothes all the way I guess :)
I've had Hyperhidrosis my entire life for a long as I can remember. I mostly have it on my hands, or feet. Mostly on the hands. My hands would sweat excessively to a point of dripping. It wasn't until my doctor gave me a prescription for Aluminum Chloride (Drysol). I couldn't believe how well it worked. No matter the activity, heavy exercise, work, etc. They would not sweat anymore. Well my hands were dry, I had to start using something I had never used in my life for my hands..... LOTION. That being said, I lost my health benefits and Drysol (Aluminum Chloride) is prescription only in the U.S. and the only way I can get it is shipped overseas, or from some vendors in Canada. There are other options besides Drysol. Driclor is also a Aluminum Chloride antiperspirant that also contains 20% of Aluminum Chloride, the same as max strength Drysol. I haven't tried it yet, but you obtain Driclor on Amazon and its less expensive than Drysol. Unless somebody else has another vendor they can recommend, I'm going to try out this Driclor because it has the same active ingredients and is less expensive.
thank you so much for making this. Ive had this since i was in 8th grade, and I've been dealing with it for almost 5 years now. I can't tell you how much of a relief it is to know that I am not alone. I know this video has definitely helped many people like me who have felt alone and isolated for so long, so thank you :)
I have it on my head and pits, its the worst. i would give anything just to have it on my pits or feet (maybe not hands) the worst part is if its warm or busy at work i drip on my face so bad. deathly embarassing :(
This video alone has helped me a lot. I haven't even used the product yet but I'm definitely going to get it. In the morning at school I will be shivering from the cold but I will still be sweating from my under arms. It's destroyed my self confidence. My church is in service right now and I stayed home because I get so embarrassed because of my sweat. Just knowing that other people have the same problem as me is awesome. Thank you thank you thank you!
I said this a million time but I will say it again because you deserve to hear it every moment: you're such a strong person and absolutely beautiful. Please keep up the great content and be your best self
I had hyperhidrosis.i went 2 my dermotologist and she prescribed me these tiny pills called "ic glycopyrrolate".stopped the sweating immediately.they are smaller than tic tacs.i take 2 in the morning and before bed.see a dermotologist
I have this problem as well. I started noticing it in 8th grade too. I feel so insecure about it and I thank you for uploading this. I've realized that i'm not the only one with this problem.
I used to have it in my palms and it was severe! I had a lot of problems when in school because of this. When I turned 21 I went through surgery and my life got so much better ❤️
I have hyperhidrosis in my armpits, hands, and feet. I used to have huge pit stains all throughout high school that I had to cover up with a sweater. My Senior year, I ordered this stuff called Maxim and applied it every night and after about 2 weeks my arm pits stopped sweating! For real. Since then I don't sweat from there unless I forget to use it for a while. I still haven't found anything to help with my hands and feet, which sucks. But at least I can wear grey t-shirts in the summer and feel normal. www.amazon.com/Maxim-Prescription-Strength-Antiperspirant-Deodorant/dp/B0014DQLN2
I've dealt with palmar hyperhidrosis for as long as I can remember (I'm 22 now) and having to shake hands with people or even give high-fives has been uncomfortable and even stressful at times for me. I'm glad you found something that's working for you and that you're sharing your experience with us :)
Hey guys, So I wanted to write this for the people having problems with there Underarms and Hands. When I was in the 8th grade (same as sarah in the video) my underarms sweat huge...like we are talking drip drip drip and my mum brought me back a product from Ireland that my cousin used at the time called "Odaban". It's a spray that you put on before going to bed and it closes up the sweat glands like the certain dri product. I only use it twice a week (use it for 2 or 3 days in a row at the beginning) and I am pretty much completely dry all the time for the last almost 30 years. I won't put there address here but you can google it and check it out (you can order it online). The second product I use is for my hands which without it my hands are a wet mess. It's called "Drysol" which you can buy over the counter at a pharmacy. But there is a trick to it that a dermatologist taught me to do which works and if I don't it doesn't. Use the dab on bottle, before you go to bed get some saran wrap and a couple of socks, tear off 12 small sheets and 2 long sheets of saran wrap and lay them on the bed (put one of the larger ones on your lap), spread the Drysol over one hand ( I do it twice then each of my finger tips again at the end), take one of the small sheets and fold it over one of your fingers (I find it easier if you start with the pinky)and wrap it around, do the same for all four fingers then one wrapped across the palm, then one over your thumb, then take one of the long sheets and wrap it around your whole hand, then pull a sock over your hand and roll it up to your wrist. Repeat on your other hand. You have to use it a few days in a row for it to start working then twice a week (twice a week works for me) Has worked for me for years! Good Luck I understand how devastating it can be to have. :)
What about scary things that many people say about aluminium ...odaban and all this sweatblock products have ... Your experience is good? Don’t you have problems ?
@Melody Moon when you sweat, the sweat gets stuck in the hair and bacteria starts growing which makes it smell bad. Some doctors recommend shaving if you sweat alot.
Hyperhidrosis is a very misunderstood condition, peoples perceptions are often that you haven't showered etc. It still has a huge stigma attached to it, mainly because of commercials showing it in a bad light. It self perpetuates, you sweat because you're anxious so you become anxious because you're sweating, and so and and so forth. Thankfully medicine is moving on all the time, there's now much more you can do than there was as little as ten, even five years ago. This is good and I hope any of you who suffer have found what works for you and a way to deal with it. In my case I had severe under arm, hands and feet HH. I was lucky in that it didn't start until I was in my late 20's, so school was never a problem. However, by this point, I was in a job that required shaking hands with people a lot and doing presentations. My hands could be clap-cold and you could see sweat dripping off my fingers. Anyway, fast-forward a few years and I'd explored all the options open to me with no success. My final option was surgery, an endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy, or ETS for short. A fairly intrusive procedure but not life threatening. I had the surgery and it was successful to a degree but I now get compensatory sweating in my chest and back and sometimes my groin area. There is a plus side in that it is more controllable with medication (Oxybutynin), but this does have side effects, dry mouth, eyes and nose and sometimes difficulty passing water. The point I'm trying to make is if you're at the ETS stage, please think very carefully before you have it done. Explore new options such as botox, look at ETS surgery as an absolute last resort. I admire Sarah's courage as it's not easy to deal with, it wasn't for me at least. However, as she says, embrace it, tell people about it, explain it to them, friends will understand and help. Best wishes to you all. XX
i really appreciate that you were willing to admit to this. i don't know that i have hyperhidrosis, but i do know i have issues with pit stains and it's nice to know someone else has a similar issue
Thank you!! I've had this condition (only underarms) since I was probably about 14 years old, I'm now 26 and this is the first time I've actually looked it up. It's been incredibly embarrassing as you know, I've tried like you have, all different brands to try and stop it and nothing ever works. Do you get BO as well? For me it's only occasional but when I do it's pretty bad. Even as I'm sitting here on my couch my armpits are dripping it's terrible. Oh wow I just heard you say 2 years for 1 bottle. That's incredibly cost effective! Thanks so much again for this video. Very helpful!!
I had hyperhidrosis too for several years as a teen. I tried EVERYTHING, deodorants, powders, creams, prescription deodorants, and nothing worked. Finally a dermatologist recommended I try botox in my arm pits and it worked! So for several years, I had to get botox every 6 months. Eventually, the hyperhidrosis went away on it's own when I turned about 22 or so. I'm glad you made this video, as I know it's an issue a lot of girls deal with.
_sorry, my answer is very long. Sorry if my english is not perfect_ Staci Anne C. and Hee Vin Kim me too. My real problem is my face sweat (i sweat in every part of my body but my face is horrible) since i can remember. I remember the only time i really stopped sweating is when i practiced a sport in a long period (rugby for 1 year and footing). When i practice i sweat, but after i was dry for a week. I stopped due to injury and my sweat problem came back. Now i read a lot of infotmation about it and i really know my problem: i have a water retention problem due to too many sodas i drank, so i have too much sugar in my body (diabetes). *My solution is personnal i do* : 1/ practice sport to eliminate the excess of water (i know that you rehydrate after, but for me, my body controls better water like that). 4 hours, and you must sweat ;) 2/ change your eating. Now i eat lot of vegetables and proteins, less of sugar (even complex sugar) and fat. Drink only water and green tea. NEVER EAT SACCHAROSE AND GLUCOSE FRUCTOSE SYRUP as possible. This cause a lot of water retention. 3 / magnesium + calcium + vitamin d cure. This point is my best personnal discovery. Magnesium is an excellent diuretic (good for heath, it doesn't deshydrate the body), plus many people are in lack of if. Calcium and vit d is for the electrolyte balance.
Staci Anne C. Hee Vin Kim I have hyperhidrosis on my face and a product called SweatBlock actually has worked for me. You can buy it on amazon. I just made a video on it... Just letting you guys know because it helped me a tonnnnn :)
Great video! I suffered so badly in high school and finally was given a prescription, basically Certain Dry that you can get over the counter now at Walmart, but 30 yrs ago I had to apply it, then tape saran-wrap under my arms and sleep like that once a week, but it was a miracle! I could not wear anything cute or cotton and colorful and wore flannel and light jackets over everything until I found this from my dermatologist!
I sweat in whole body generall in winter i dont sweat that much is oke but in summer i sweat all the time is so annoying i even avoid going out with my friends or brother i feel so nervous about that and i avoiding handshakes etc i was a social guy now i have like no friends... i have to find 1 solution soon btw with all that stress i have stomach pains sometimes i am 18 now the problem start at the age of 15.
dude im right there with you.i think I am the worst case ive seen.and its sad because I am very handsome and athletic idc whats wrong.i sweat no matter what..
i had the same problem and i was really devastated so i had 2 laser operations. i know it is really expensive but for me it was the only way cause i tried everything already. the first time the operation didn't work, i was still sweating excessively but after the second one it stopped and now i´m sweating not at all! hope i could help you (:
You have to keep putting it on. Only at night. 10 mintues. After you get after the shower. Were you using the roll on or solid kind? Because it usual works really well.
Chelsie Huff I had hyperhidrosis as well! I recommend watching the video on the link I share with you, the guy is a genius: ede06cb99q-z5o9en2o-5m7u8d.hop.clickbank.net/?tid=UA-cam
I stopped my piano classes when I was a child because my teacher got upset every time she saw the keys dirty and sent me to wash my hands. At that point I didn’t know/ understand I had a sweaty problem with my hands. I tried botox twice as an adult but didn’t work. I learnt to accept it and live with it but every social interaction still hard and sometimes scary.
I am so thankful you have done this video! My dad has this problem and I think I am going to have it, because I already sweat much more than other people. I am really really thankful you've done this video! :)
I'm 13 years old. I have hyperhydrosis. I tried telling my mom about it so I could get help or something to help me stop sweating. Mine is under my arms (go ahead laugh). Anyways she just ignored me when I said that I sweat excessively and she just said I don't wash well enough :( I actually take showers in the morning and at night everyday. It's really embarrassing and I can't do normal things at school anymore :(
xoxo.amanda hi! i dont know you but i saw ur comment and i just want to say im here for u! i have hyperhydrosis in my underarms and well- it sucks. i cant wear anything and im constantly worrying about it. if u need someone to talk to let me know and im sure if you explain to your mom about this condition she will understand. chances are someone in your family has it too because you have to get it from somewhere (i think, im not a doctor so i cant say for sure but thats how it is in my family) i hope this helped even a little bit!
xoxo.amanda hi Amanda im 15 and I also have it under my arms and I never take my school blazer off anymore but my mum took me took the doctors and they gave me some strange deodorant that you put on at night and then wash off in the morning. I haven't yet tried it but I am looking forward to it and yeah I feel your pain it is soo embarrassing :(
I have it too ! And just made a video about it. I definitely think it's better to put it out there than hide it away . It feels good to know you're not alone when you suffer from something like this.
Till I found Certain Dri 5 years ago, all I wore loose black tops pretty mich all the time. Mym mum used to hope I would wear a colour but I just couldn't. No one else I knew had the same problems I had and it sucked cos it was so embarrassing. It's great that you talked about this so girls abd guys like us with our condition don't feel shitty about having permanently super sweaty pits 24/7. Good on you : )
You can develop social anxiety, you avoid social events due to worry over this issue, relaxtion, meditation will help but other steps need to be taken to get body and mind back in balance with natural methods.
Wow you're like a talking me right now. it's so great to see another beautiful person going thru the same thing we all go thru. I also use certain dry and it's being working so well for me. good to know we're not alone. now im working on relaxing and controlling my anxiety levels. which seems to help a lot. thanks so much for sharing.
i comepletely related to your story, down to even being envious of another girl! and your so right after high school you realize how stupid that is and you become more comfortable in your own skin :) im so glad i found certain dry as well when i was 15/16
I've had it since I was born and I feel really different and lonely when I'm in school. I feel like I'm so odd. But finding out that you guys also have it kinda makes me happy, lol. I know it's a problem, but knowing that I'm not alone makes me feel more okay with the problem.
I've been having hyperhidrosis like...all my life. Same happened to me, I felt ashamed and uncomfortable with myself, I felt weird too. I was scared of holding hands with somebody, the first time on that was when I was 8, on school. If someone held my hand they would say ''ewww you're sweating'', and what could I do about it? nothing. My mum used to say to me that it was normal and that I shouldn't hide it. It took me years to. Now instead, people say to me that they don't care, that it's normal and that it doesn't change who i am.
Thank you so much for posting this. I have sweated from my hands and feet ever since I could remember. Glad I'm not alone. My best friend gets disgusted when she touches my hands. I'm very self-conscious.
My experience is that itching is only temporary. I am not a physician but I haven't noticed any damage to my skin after 3 years. If your hands get too dry, try a little hand lotion. The important thing is not to give up trying the method. Most people will have extraordinary results within 2 weeks, maybe sooner. Some it takes longer-just don't give up! And follow the Bowling videos!.
i've had hyperhidrosis since i was born in my hands, feet, and underarms. it sucks but i've been using drysol and it works really well. i still can't hold hands or give high fives sometimes, but i definitely recommend it.
I have hyperhidrosis too! I excessively sweat on my palms, feet, cupidspoe, and armpits. They sweat ALL THE TIME!!!! U have helped me a lot! Thank U!!❤️
youre so brave thank you for sharing. its people like you that are helping educate others and advocate for hyperhydrosis sufferers. love from Australia
I didn't notice Sarah mention it, but it is important to do your research first since aluminum is highly toxic and is tied to some bad diseases. Good luck in your continued search!
It´s awkward how people complain about sweating on hands or armpits. I would do anything to only have this problems. I sweat everywhere. Armpits, hands, neck, head, lip, feet, legs, ass, balls. Just everywhere. But the biggest problem is the back. I can hide armpits. I dont shake hands or fistbumb my friends. But the back is terrible. You can´t hide it. And that´s terrible.
I have hyperhydrosis too! I also used to think I was wierd when I was younger and my friends would also comment on how much I used to sweat from my underarms. I used to get these huge sweat stains, it literally seemed I ran a marathon. It was such a bad experience and I felt so embarrased. Until I saw your older video were you talked about it. It's been about a year now since I use Certain-Dri. it works wonders! And yes I get the occasional itch, but it is worth it! Thank you so much Sarah!!
I never really admitted it, but I Have Hyperhidrosis. I usually sweat a lot in social situations(school). and it sucks to because I push myself away from certain situations because of it. I feel for me personally, it is a mental thing because if I think about too much, it controls me, but if I'm not, I don't sweat at all. I started in 8th grade and now I'm an Incoming Sophomore. Thank you for sharing this because now I know I'm not gonna let this control me and i know that I'm not alone.(:
I encourage everyone to do their research before using aluminum containing antiperspirants. I have excessive sweating basically all over my body and I think I'd rather just use coconut oil, or a lemon slice to cut the bacteria and have no odor.
I have it in my hands...history lesson; Fletcher Christiansen had hyperhydrosis, from Mutiny on the Bounty. Captain Bligh described it once via a journal entry, "he was prone to violent sweats in his hands that would stain anything he touched".
"There is no conclusive research linking the use of underarm antiperspirants or deodorants and the subsequent development of breast cancer." From the NIH's Cancer Institute website.
Without a doubt, hyperhidrosis is a handicap. It's so embarassing that your own mother or bf probably don't know about it unless you decided to wear the wrong top at the wrong time. But as humiliating as it was, the best thing I ever did was mention it to my doctor. I got hydrosal (pretty much the equivalent of certain dri) and it's been life changing, no joke. This video is awesome and I wish the younger me had seen it sooner so I could of had the confidence to tell a doctor earlier! x
hyperhidrosis Main Cause reasons : 1- depression 2- low self esteem 3- Shyness 4- inner grief ... 5-self humiliation(self hating) in Comparing to others and other Subjective problems ...
FINALLY!!!!! someone who i can relate to. I first began seeing i was really sweating in fifth grade, but didn't think about it that much until i got into middle school. I'm exactly like you, i could be freezing cold, but i would still have these huge stains on ALL of my shirts. I also gave up on white shirts because i would turn the underarms yellow, and i NEVER take off my sweatshirt even if you paid me. Even today, almost a freshman in high school, i can't control, or reduce it no matter how much deodorant i put on in the morning and during the day. It's just SOOOO embarrassing i can't stand it. So i asked my doctor to prescribe my to hypercare because im willing to do anything by now (no needles though).
For those who don't have it and say "it doesn't sound that bad", its terrible. You isolate yourself from places you are prone to start sweating: like crowded places, outside even etc. But this greatly affects your decisions on where you wanna go. I've skipped lots of party's and summer activities because of my extreme sweating. The terrible thing is, when you start sweating its almost impossible to stop (for me at least), I didn't get a summer job 2 years in a row because of this now.
I like that you share this!! I have hyperhidrosis everywhere (feet, armpits, hands) and I did an Iontophorese-therapy! Maybe you heard of it- if not, try it! It really helped me!! Good luck, mate!
+Vanessa barfuß did it stop or a bit
it is tough to find a job (especially in the current economy) that the hyperhydrosis will NOT make complicated i feel you there.
:(
Hyperhidrosis helps a lot, but I still sweat. I am so isolated as well :/
It freakin' sucks to have sweaty palms
- I can't text
- I can't hold a bat
- I can't do minute things
- I have to wipe them every time in any fabric
- My hands slip off the steering wheel while driving.
- It brings social anxiety for no reason.
- I have to change clothes/socks more frequently than others.
- I cannot make a firm handshake , and it definitely has a negative impression in professional life
I am definitely going to have a surgery soon. RIP Hyperhidrosis!
I know how you feel most people sweat on their underarms. I swear on my hands to my feet and unfortunately my thighs. I used to sweat really bad in my underarns strangely it stopped after highschool. Now that I'm older i still deal with my hands, feet, and thighs. Just know it's okay. I know how it feels to have your hands basically cause it's own rain shower. I use cloth wheels so it doesn't slip while I drive. Try bathing in baking soda it helps my dad has hyperhydrosis an it makes a big difference. Stay strong because at the end of the day atleast you have hands an atleast it's not a life or death disorder. I hope I helped some :)
I know exactly how this feels. Sometimes I can't even do my hair. I hate the summer, bc I have to wear sandals or go barefoot. I stopped drawing. I quit dancing because we started to dance barefoot. I try to always wear socks inside no matter how warm it is. I also have a kind of neurodermatitis on my hands but I can't use something against it, it just makes me sweat more.
i feel you brother :(
+Aman Danish You seem like a monster
+Pill Box u cheeky shit. I imagine u too have it as why else would you be watching? yet you insult others. Why do people think it's ok to talk to people online this way? U are the archetypal troll. i truly believe folk that troll vulnerable people probably have inferiority complexes. They are insecure, have maybe been bullied badly, hence them trolling people randomly. They can't assert themselves in a real social environment, are often dominated, not noticed or too afraid to stand up for themselves, they engage people online as there are no physical consequences from insulting, offending and trolling. it empowers them and acts like a psychological substitute for dominance assertion. in laymans..... they are weak in real life so they get a buzz from trolling.
I have it and its REALLY bad. Like on a cold winter day my shirt was soaked.
Lol I have found my people. #communityofhyperhydrosis
+Abi Johnson Literally, my computer's mouse is soaking wet because of this crap right now. This is one of the reasons why I don't want to hold my GF's hands.. huhuhu
+Mark Enorme Well...at least you've got a gf

i sweat more in the cold than in the heat... it's because of the lack of air flow. as long as air is moving, I won't sweat too much
I'm sweating too but only in school. At home I can wear anything what I want, but when I go with my friends shopping or do anything else with friends, I'm starting sweating. I think it is because I'm scared that I sweat and so I can't stop think about it. It's hard because I wanna wear colourful clothes too, but I don't wanna anybody see that I'm nsweating. But I know that I'm going to stop sweating the most important thing is to not think about it. You just make yourself stress. You have to say: Today I'm going to be dry under my armpit
I HAVE LITERALLY THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM.
AmeriCanonStudios it sucks right? :/
Yes...I am in college as a freshman and it does suck. It's a fight every single day. To try and stay calm and anxiety free so I don't sweat
I bought myself today the dove maximum protection and it should be really good! You can buy it everywhere and it costs 6€ i think that's okay my friend uses it too and she aaid it's really good...whe has sports in school and she wore a long arm shirt and ut was really hot but you couldn't see anything! Hope it works at me too
i don't really sweat at home too. i heard that that's because you are calm when you are at home. i'm using syneo and it works really well. but i'm from germany so i don't know if it is available in your country
i finally got myself to google what the hell was wrong with me and now im sitting here sobbing ... since i was 12 years old i have felt like a freak i rarely let people hug me or shake hands with me. i only ever wear black oversized clothes and this has been my life for so long. and now on this day i know what is wrong with me... i cant stop crying. you have no idea how happy i am to see a person talking about a thing a can relate to so much. espacially the thing about seeing others wear colored shirts that one hit right home, thats me every day of my life... thank you
btw im now 19
literally same
There are several tips to try take a shower often choose loose clothing.
consume plenty of water and sage tea.
dont have spicy foods and caffiene. (I learned these and the reasons they work on Sebs Sweat Blueprint website )
Martin Ba I do all those things everyday and trust me, I think mine is an emotional trigger? Like if I'm feeling nervous, all of a sudden my hand is a puddle of sweat.
Lord Lazy yeah thats what i thought mine was at first but i think that what really happened was i was nervous that i would swaet and so i just always thought "dont be nervous" and i mean it still happened. i use the deodorant now and god has it changed my life!! i can wear pretty much whatever i want (not really a tight top kinda girl i have found out).
honestly really try it it changes lives:-)
Frederikke Eleonora Guldborg Heick any special kinda deodorant or can it be anything?
They should have a dating site for ppl with hyperhidrosis lol. It would make life so much easier if the other person already knew you had it. You wouldn't get nervous trying to hide your condition and would be way more comfortable. I'm seeing a lot of pretty woman on here. But sadly I'll never meet em. Hopefully there will be in the future , it would make dating situations 10x easier. Just a thought from a 23 yr old male suffering badly from this stuff. :'(
But the question is are you a girl
If you are then let me know 😁
Oh very good idea
follow my Instagram caitiebird_ and message me on there
Its a good idea.. Im suffering hyperhydrosis too..
I have hyperhidrosis all over. Underarms, palms, and feet. It sucks.
me too
me too :((
Thinbuthealthy me too have you find anything that works for you? i cant wear cute sandals or anything this crap really effects my life
All girls have hyperhidrosis after 10 minutes in my bed.
Courtney Successful i bought perspi guard antiperspirant hope it works??
My daughter has it bad on her hands and feet. She can't wear flip flops/sandals and feels like she isn't normal because of it. She had a week of ballroom dancing and everyone commented on it. NOBODY MAKE FUN OF THOSE WHO HAVE IT.
same areas as me. hands maybe a little worse.
Same!
Same hands and feet
Bless your daughter i know how she feels I always get people commenting on it I have it full body I know how hard it can be if you can get to a GP and ask for some tablets I'm on oxybutinine it's a slow releasing medication which really does help
It's so nice to see that there are a lot of people living with Hyperhidrosis, not just me alone. I started sweating excessively in 6th grade, but I thought I was just going through puberty. In 8th grade it was so bad that I wore jackets EVERY day and I still sweated through them. It was humiliating. For a while this controlled my life, I was always worrying about having to raise my hand or having someone see my sweat stains. It had been an ongoing battle with my mom about taking me to the doctor to have this checked out, but finally my mom gave in less than a week ago. The doctor confirmed that I do, in fact, have Hyperhidrosis and she gave me a prescription for an antiperspirant called DrySol and it's been working amazingly! I suffered in silence for four years before learning that hey, sweating through your shirt every day isn't normal, and now that I know that Hyperhidrosis is a real disorder, I'm conquering it :)
I literally have sweaty palms all the time, and it's usually triggered by my anxiety. But I noticed sometimes my palms sweat for literally no reason. So this helped a lot thank you!
my palms also sweat for no reason, it really sucks
+savanah rose I'm bursting to get social on rainy days, it helped a lot, they didn't even notice that my palm is sweating. But it sucks on sunny days. Saddest part is I cannot hold a girls hand for too long with this disorder.
***** actually my anxiety triggers first, so, not a chance to go out. Maybe in a room where i'm comfortable i can hold her hand. The same state lyc you to get away with many people. RIP social life
+patrick malalo-an You should think about getting ETS surgery, check it out
+savanah rose...Me2. For me its the hot weather, excitement and anxiety. And my palms and feet are always ice cold and sweaty. Sometimes water pours out like a tap,Lol. So used to it now.
I am so happy this isn't just me!!! When I'm shopping I have to ask which shirt will make me sweat less. Sweat drops down my arms when I'm sitting at home doing nothing and it's so aggravating. I'm going to try this and it'll be the best day of my life if it works haha
Sergeant Sass I had hyperhidrosis as well! I recommend watching the video on the link I share with you, the guy is a genius: ede06cb99q-z5o9en2o-5m7u8d.hop.clickbank.net/?tid=UA-cam
Did it work for you?😄
Oh man I'm so sorry to hear that it must be so tough
Sergeant Sass same I was sitting down once just on the computer and my armpits weren't touching my cloths so my arms were out and so I was sweating so much I felt a stream of sweat crawling down my arms and I could see it was a little off white and the stream was too. XD that was my deodorant sweating off my arms. Ik TMI but what also happens is I will get a huge white circle of deodorant around my arms by the end of the day and I don't know how to control it since I use baking soda under my arms to prevent sweating and odor.
omg me too!?
whenever am out,i sweat like hell
once at home the sweating stops and this cycle is like hell
Yass at home by myself not a drop but everywhere else...
same
I haven't told anybody. I only wear really large shirts to avoid touching my pits with my clothes. I hate myself wow. what even is deodorant supposed to do? it does nothing lol. Not even antitranspirants if they are from the drugstore
Don't hate yourself! Sweating is something you can't control at all, and if people are judging you because of it, it's their problem. It's alright girl ❤️
Yeah, I know how you feel, just be open to your closest friends and family, and it will make things a lot better. don't worry about others judging, every one including them has something the are self conscious about. be happy, enjoy life, and let's all cope with this together.
hyperhidrosis Main Cause reasons :
1- depression
2- low self esteem
3- Shyness
4- inner grief ...
5-self humiliation(self hating) in Comparing to others
and other Subjective problems ...
makes sense
I have all that you are saying..I almost skip going out of home because I have no 5 very much.
for me its almost everything. feet, face, pits, back, hands. i only wear dark colors and im waiting for the train right now and im drenched. fuck the summer
In Summer's wear a swimming shirt there very thick and no water can get through them
HARAMBE My Love same mate, my main problem is my pits and back..sometimes my hand..actually i'm typing this right now with sweaty hands xD :((( MY LIFE SUCKS :(((
Ava Morgan me too i have in face ... :(
i have hyperhidrosis. I'm 13 years old and I was born with it. I have it on my palms and feet. I'm really conscious because the people around treated me differently (except my family and close friends). I'm scared of shaking hands, high fives, holding hands etc. It's really hard to explain this to other people but knowing that there are so many other people going through the same thing as me, It gives me some confidence.
im the exact same way and i was also born with it.
but i have it on my palms, feet and underarms.
I have the same problem!!!
Monica Haro me too :(
Same bruh
This is so relieving, my brother and I have always suffered with sweaty palms all day, every day. I also struggle with underarm and foot sweating. My mum took us to the doctors when I was around 6 to see if anything was wrong but they brushed it off but 9 years on its a big problem for me and has been for a few years now as I cannot shake hands because I feel as if they would judge me because of my palms, it's a huge problem also as we have to wear white blouses for school so in the summer I can't take my blazer off because of sweat patches. I googled like "why do I always sweaty palms" and this was a suggestion and I persuaded my mum to get me a doctors appointment sometime in the near future as it stops me from doing certain things, thank you so much for making this video, it was so helpful even if I am two years late on it.
Lauren Denning Chelsie Huff hello i have too sweating hands
i have all three also which sucks
same
+Lauren Denning Read my post I just wrote and I hope it helps. Cheers
I have it as does my older brother (somewhat).. I have read it effects families in clusters so they are right about something on this un ventured medical condition.
I'm 25 now and my armpit sweatiness started in 5th or 6th grade. Ugh so horrible. It totally ran my life
I hate hyperhidrosis. I've had it for a few years now, and I know that that doesn't sound like a lot but I'm only 12. At school in the halls, or in class I take every chance to avoid touching other people. Sometimes they get so sweaty that they drench my desk with little water droplets. And there has never been a time when there where not sweaty, or cold, or clammy, clammy is the best they can get. But that's not the worst part, pit stains. Pit stains are the worst part. Everytime I wear one of my favorite outfits, or just an outfit. In the car when I'm going to school they have already soaked through so I put my hoodie on for the entire day. It doesn't take much, in just 30 seconds I could have drops running down my sides. And my feet to. There always cold, and freezing if I'm not wearing shoes. And they only sweat cold sweat, so at night in bed my sheets get drenched in cold sweat and it makes it hard to go to sleep. I don't get it. Like why do I have to have it. No body eles has enormous pit stains on each side of there shirts. No one eles has to avoid touching propels hands, or in that case anything. No one eles has to deal with it. And I've tried everything. I've literally duct taped cotton balls to my armpits before just to last a night because I was going to the movies with my boyfriend. One time I put panty liners on the inside of my shirt to keep the sweat stains away, they sweat through within my first hour class. I've tried so much and it's hopeless. My parents don't even want to help me because they don't care.

exactly same here, I thought am the only suffering like this
Ask your parents to buy you Drysol or save up for it. It really works. Day one you'll feel the difference.
Perspiration is regulated by the Sympathetic Nervous System, which controls about five million sweat glands in the body. Most common body sites affected are the underarms, palms, feet and forehead. When your body temperature rises, hot blood flows to your brain, which sends signals to increase the flow of blood to your skin and start you sweating.

George Pearson hey there I bought that book but can't figure out what to do can you plz help
lmao you got scammed dude
I suffer from hyperhydrosis and watching this video and reading these comments brings me so much joy. I've cried myself to sleep so many nights because of my sweaty hands. High fiving people, shaking hands, touching people in any way. It's terrible. Most people don't realise how much this condition can effect people's daily lives. I hope that this video (and many others) will inform others about this disorder and let them know that it hard. It's really hard. Thanks

I have hyperhidrosis since i was a baby. I never knew life without it. It affects my hands, underarms and feet. My sweating is so severe but i've learned to live normally with it. I can say that it used to bother me so much when i was younger, i can't write without having the paper wet and i cant go out wearing slippers or sandals. I also have to choose what i will wear so that the sweating won't be too obvious. I used to be so embarrased about it. People notice it especially my hands. But now, i feel ok with it, i have lived all my life with it and i feel totally normal. My advice to those who have it is that you don't need to be embarrassed, just live your life to the fullest. Just think that we are still lucky we are complete, we have hands, legs and feet and etc, sweat is just sweat even if it is severe, we don't need to make it a big problem. Just hold your hankies all the time and dont wear slippers, and everything will be fine. :)
I have the same problem in all 3 places..i learned to live wit it also but i really wish i could reduce the amount of sweat on my hands its sooo annoying..everywhere i go i have to carry a paper towel or cloth in my hands to keep wiping them off..i tell my mom how much it effects my life but she doesn't think its a big deal,i think because she dont understand
uniQueShaii try botox. I get it for free , and it's 90% stops the sweating. For me it only lasts 3 months. I have ir severely. But i get my injections every 3 months for free. And, I'm super active, since I was so inactive all those years i had it. I'm sorry to hear your mom is not supportive but that's okay, you are here now in this forum. Email me for more info on how to get free botox/injections. And, no i don't work for them. I'm just a long time sufferer from this condition whom wants to help out ;)
Cecilia Greco how do you get it for free?!
Siavash Golzar Hi, call 18004426869 . I believe you press 3#, and 6#. It's called the botox reinburesement program.
Let them know your problem.
You have to show proof of hardship. A simple letter can di it with your signature saying you are incapable of working under these conditions. Which is true.
I just got my botox injections, I was so inactive for so long, I have 2 jobs that I love, and I'm self reliant. It's wonderful!! Try it. If you have any questions let me know.
Also you need to find a dermatologist that does this procedure.
I live in NYC, so it's easy to find one here. I go to the dermatologist center in Bayside Queens.
Cecilia Greco If you start now , you can be sweat free in 2 weeks. They take about a week to process paperwork and overnight ship medication.
But you need to find that awesome doctor that will find out if insurance covers the injections themselves.
I have welcare, it covers 100% of the injection fee. Which is $300 each hand.
But i hear that's a special price for me. I mean, i went in there crying years ago.
So they really helped me out.
If you really want it, you have to have other peoples sympathy.
You need to find yourself a great doc.
And if you live in nyc, go check out Dr.Zuckerman or Phoebe at the dermatologist center. They are my life savor.!! For real!!
Thank you sooo much for this video. I have been dealing with hyperhidrosis for about a year now but I didn't know what was wrong with me. It was so embarrassing for me because my friends would walk up to me and say u have huge sweat stains. I'm not a confident person so that was horrible:( My hyperhidrosis started getting worse and worse and eventually I just wore black. After I watched this I felt MUCH better that I was not the only one and I got up the courage to tell my mom about it and she really just didn't understand what I was going through. And so she finally ordered certain dri the other day. I have literally been wearing it for like a week but it has already been life changing. After one day I was like ok this might work and the next day I cautiously wore a pink shirt and I was fine! I feel so much better thank u so so so so much for this video :)
I sweat from my forehead so bad when I get nervous or when i go out with my friends to the mall, I'll start to sweat. Even when I'm having a conversation one on one I'll get sweaty and just ignore the other person trying to control it. I just signed up for college And have oral communication class. Idk how I'm going to do it lol.
IAmGunzNoob Smh
IAmGunzNoob and you're just a waste of space.
IAmGunzNoob you first :)
***** i already did :-)
IAmGunzNoob You need a life. Why do people like you exist?
I've commented probably on your last three or four videos, but honestly each time I just fall more in love with your hair! Looking more and more stunning with each video and such an inspiration. Thank you for being you!
I'm so sorry to hear that! Don't let people like that get to you. I have the disorder as well and I've dealt with bullies like that. Just know you're not alone.
Instead of shaking hands, I fist bump now. It's cooler anyways
Katon Zaky me to!! LOL!!!!
It's nice to see a popular UA-camr talk about this :) I've had this forever and everywhere, but my hands and feet are the worst. Hands are the worst because there are so many things you can't do - write across a paper, play instruments, shake hands to greet people, hold hands with your loved one, even handing money to the cashier is an embarrassing moment. Sweaty feet just means I can't wear slippers, open shoes or heels. Driclor worked for me and changed my life too! Can't live without it.
I probably have this too :( I always sweat and because of the sweat you can get body odor too even if you wear deodorant and take showers daily. I used to get bullied a lot as a kid for this :( Sigh don't worry, if you have this you are not alone. It's unpleasant but what can you do? It is what it is and you just have to look past it. There are ALOT of WORSE disorders out there that you could have had but thank God you don't.
Alexis Lexie Hi guys I see many are frustrated with hyperhidrosis. I also had but not now. You can cure it naturally without medicines. Just drink 3 to 5 glass of ginger juice regularly and by doing correct exercise for blood circulation, u can cure it within 4 months. You can see the difference in 15days. You can add lemon and honey with the ginger juice. I used to drink 2 glass in morning, afternoon and night, that is 6 glass per day. Try to boil and drink always for instant result. And I see many deleting my messages, so if u got cured just forward the message to all. Just try and see the magic. Bye hyperhidrosis. Don't worry we are not cursed god is with us, just try it. Bye.
@@jeyram5380 How you made this ginger juice? In juicer? Is this good, I once drinked soup with ginger and it was terrible haha
After over 10 years (basically my whole life) of dealing with hyperhidrosis, I am finally going for a Botox consultation the day after tomorrow :) I have tried not worrying about it, used topical antiperspirants, gone to a psychologist for the intense anxiety that accompanied it, and I have finally realized how much it's holding me back from my day to day life. I've used Drysol (20%) for years, and although it worked at first, I now have eczema on the back of my hands so I can't really use it anymore plus it is not always effective for me. I just want anyone watching this video now as I first did a few years ago to understand that it doesn't define you and I hope that all of us will one day not have to deal with hyperhidrosis anymore. I always tell myself, it could have been worse. I could have had cancer, or some other terminal disease but I was dealt this card instead and now it's up to me to choose what I do with it from here onwards.
I sweat ALOT. It's so embarrassing because I feel like I look gross or I smell odd. I don't know if it's a medical condition but I could be sitting and I start sweating whether it be in class or just talking with friends. Non air conditioned classrooms are a bitch (although it doesn't matter because I still will sweat). Even in the winter I sweat in my winter coat. I hate going to my friends houses because they are always hot, causing me to sweat. I was at a friends house the other day and My skin was literally WET and shiny with sweat, while they were fine. My feet and hands aren't even a problem, It's the rest of my body
You're one of my favorite UA-camrs & it is so comforting knowing you go through the same thing I do :) I also only wore black clothing in high school due to my pit stains. I never realized that's why I dress the way I do! This is so relatable and honest, thanks for sharing. Wish I heard this years ago.
Everytime i go to school especially early in the schoolyear, i am scared to write cause everytime i write, my hand sweats from the heat and my paper will become wet. I hate it.
That's me too. Everyday I think this hyperhidrosis is taking over my life . For example I can't wear any bright colors anymore ,just black. And now my paper gets wet and now that I'm starting middle school it's gonna get worse.what starts my sweating is that scratching noise,humidity,worried, You know there's a surgery for this annoying sweating to go away if I'm starting to sweat I have to wear a jacket if at school or change my shirt at home when righting this my hands feet armpits (yea I said armpit and I am not ashamed)and nose (yea nose) .i wear socks and rarely wear gloves CURSE YOU HYPERHIDROSIS YOU RUINED MY LIFE THANKS A LOT 🖐🏼🖐🏼🖐🏼🖐🏼 CANT WAIT TO AGE AND GET RID OF THIS STUPID SWEATING
+Lloyd Ramjit a lot of people have it, let's all work together and stay strong to help cope for the moment, be open to your family and friends and they will make you feel better. hope this helps, I know it sucks.
I love that you were able to talk about this. Even if none of your viewers struggle from the same issue, it's so necessary to know that you're not the only one who has a 'weird thing', you're not a freak, you're not disgusting, and I wish that more people would talk openly about these kinds of things. Then we could all just relax and stop feeling like we're somehow inadequate. By the way, your hair and makeup are stunning in this video! Such a beautiful person :)
Thank you for sharing your experience! :) I have had the same problem since about 8th or 9th grade too and now I'm almost 23. I sweat constantly, when it's hot or cold, when I'm nervous or calm. It's soo annoying and embarrassing. I usually wear darker coloured shirts because I don't want people to see my sweat stains.
I have been a lifelong hyperhidrosis sufferer. Dermadry is a ’MAGIC MACHINE’ that has reduced sweating and my changed life!
It's really hard to go shoping once you sweat a lot bc you can only buy what you know it won't leave the huge sweat stains when u use it so that's my biggest problem and when i am at school for a long time i can't move my arms bc i'm sweating a lot it's so bad but thank you for sharing your experience really helped me !! I'm sixteen now and i thought this would go away but it didn't oh well i'm probably go to a doctor one day
I've never heard of it, but you really explained it great! I hope people who do have it and are ashamed don't feel that way anymore and they can find ways to deal with it. (:
I wear all black too. If I wear any colours I make sure the patterns disguise the sweat stains. Sometimes I'd like to wear something else but I'm not brave enough unless I'm home or with my bf (who doesn't care at all). I've tried every medication but they don't work because my hyperhidrosis is in almost my whole body (feet, hands, underarms, butt, back, stomach).
+kawaiipeach Hi! I have the exact same situation as you do, excessive sweating not just on my armpits or hands but my entire body especially my back, armpits and legs (which is why I also wear only black or patterned shirts like you). I wanted to ask you which methods you've tried so far and if any of them worked even in the slightest? I'm asking you specifically because most people seem to have this problem only on their hands, feet or armpits and not in their whole body. So I'd really appreciate it if you'd reply to me. Thanks!
+OmerFY Hi! Sorry for the delay.
First I tried solid and liquid aluminium antiperspirants (with a doctor prescription). The first one didn't work at all so then I moved to the liquid one that was stronger. It kind of worked but only on my armpits. I was very happy but a couple of years later I developed three breast cysts so I had to stop using it because it's thought to be related to breast cancer.
Then I was thinking about the surgery to get the HH out of my hands and feet. I got an appoitment with a surgeon and I was commited to get that surgery done but when he explained that it would not only make the other parts of my body sweat more but it could also not work at all, then I decided not to do it.
Then I was put under hormonal pills since after a regular check on my doctor he found out that I have a thyroid disorder. The pills were suposed to help at least a little bit with my HH but it didn't happen even now that my thyroid is better. I been on the pills for almost a year.
I've also tried natural home remedies for the armpits such as apple cider vinegar and homemade coconut oil/baking soda deodorant. Those work for the smell but not for the excesive sweat.
For the rest of my body I've just gave up because non of the methods above work. I just wear all black or clothes with prints that can mask the HH.
I work at customer service and for work I simply have a little towel, handkerchief or papel towels for my hands and wear black tops and black pants every day.
I've been suffering from this since I was born and now I'm 27 so I think that after a while you just get used to cope with it.
If you've tried something that worked, please let me know!
Sorry for my english (not my native language).
kawaiipeach Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately I haven't found a method that works for me yet but I'll let you know if I come across something that works. Until then, black clothes all the way I guess :)
I have it to!!! Nothing to be ashamed of
I've had Hyperhidrosis my entire life for a long as I can remember. I mostly have it on my hands, or feet. Mostly on the hands. My hands would sweat excessively to a point of dripping. It wasn't until my doctor gave me a prescription for Aluminum Chloride (Drysol). I couldn't believe how well it worked. No matter the activity, heavy exercise, work, etc. They would not sweat anymore.
Well my hands were dry, I had to start using something I had never used in my life for my hands..... LOTION.
That being said, I lost my health benefits and Drysol (Aluminum Chloride) is prescription only in the U.S. and the only way I can get it is shipped overseas, or from some vendors in Canada.
There are other options besides Drysol. Driclor is also a Aluminum Chloride antiperspirant that also contains 20% of Aluminum Chloride, the same as max strength Drysol. I haven't tried it yet, but you obtain Driclor on Amazon and its less expensive than Drysol. Unless somebody else has another vendor they can recommend, I'm going to try out this Driclor because it has the same active ingredients and is less expensive.
I have the same condition .my hands and feet sweat all the time .and its so embarrassing !!!
thank you so much for making this. Ive had this since i was in 8th grade, and I've been dealing with it for almost 5 years now. I can't tell you how much of a relief it is to know that I am not alone. I know this video has definitely helped many people like me who have felt alone and isolated for so long, so thank you :)
I have it on my head and pits, its the worst. i would give anything just to have it on my pits or feet (maybe not hands) the worst part is if its warm or busy at work i drip on my face so bad. deathly embarassing :(
This video alone has helped me a lot. I haven't even used the product yet but I'm definitely going to get it. In the morning at school I will be shivering from the cold but I will still be sweating from my under arms. It's destroyed my self confidence. My church is in service right now and I stayed home because I get so embarrassed because of my sweat. Just knowing that other people have the same problem as me is awesome. Thank you thank you thank you!
i have sweaty palms and feet !! it sucks !!
I said this a million time but I will say it again because you deserve to hear it every moment: you're such a strong person and absolutely beautiful. Please keep up the great content and be your best self
I had hyperhidrosis.i went 2 my dermotologist and she prescribed me these tiny pills called "ic glycopyrrolate".stopped the sweating immediately.they are smaller than tic tacs.i take 2 in the morning and before bed.see a dermotologist
ur lying
Ask any dermotologist about it.google it
it does work but it dries you out so much as in super dry mouth and even eyes. its an anticholinergic. do you still use it?
I wonder what the long term effects are if they are the sort term...
I have this problem as well. I started noticing it in 8th grade too. I feel so insecure about it and I thank you for uploading this. I've realized that i'm not the only one with this problem.
This is one of the reasons I only ever did swimming as a sport, hallelujah, best exercise ever.
I used to have it in my palms and it was severe! I had a lot of problems when in school because of this. When I turned 21 I went through surgery and my life got so much better ❤️
its like your story is the exact same as mine! the only think is that I only sweat so horribly when I'm at school
Thank you, Sarah, for recommending Certain Dri, and for making this video. My experience with this product has proven to be a life-changing event. :)
I have to wear all black or a hoddie to hide the armpit sweat stains.Its sucks
Same
+Spooderman#2 yeah dude same
I have hyperhidrosis in my armpits, hands, and feet. I used to have huge pit stains all throughout high school that I had to cover up with a sweater. My Senior year, I ordered this stuff called Maxim and applied it every night and after about 2 weeks my arm pits stopped sweating! For real. Since then I don't sweat from there unless I forget to use it for a while. I still haven't found anything to help with my hands and feet, which sucks. But at least I can wear grey t-shirts in the summer and feel normal. www.amazon.com/Maxim-Prescription-Strength-Antiperspirant-Deodorant/dp/B0014DQLN2
I've dealt with palmar hyperhidrosis for as long as I can remember (I'm 22 now) and having to shake hands with people or even give high-fives has been uncomfortable and even stressful at times for me. I'm glad you found something that's working for you and that you're sharing your experience with us :)
Hey guys,
So I wanted to write this for the people having problems with there Underarms and Hands. When I was in the 8th grade (same as sarah in the video) my underarms sweat huge...like we are talking drip drip drip and my mum brought me back a product from Ireland that my cousin used at the time called "Odaban". It's a spray that you put on before going to bed and it closes up the sweat glands like the certain dri product. I only use it twice a week (use it for 2 or 3 days in a row at the beginning) and I am pretty much completely dry all the time for the last almost 30 years. I won't put there address here but you can google it and check it out (you can order it online).
The second product I use is for my hands which without it my hands are a wet mess. It's called "Drysol" which you can buy over the counter at a pharmacy. But there is a trick to it that a dermatologist taught me to do which works and if I don't it doesn't. Use the dab on bottle, before you go to bed get some saran wrap and a couple of socks, tear off 12 small sheets and 2 long sheets of saran wrap and lay them on the bed (put one of the larger ones on your lap), spread the Drysol over one hand ( I do it twice then each of my finger tips again at the end), take one of the small sheets and fold it over one of your fingers (I find it easier if you start with the pinky)and wrap it around, do the same for all four fingers then one wrapped across the palm, then one over your thumb, then take one of the long sheets and wrap it around your whole hand, then pull a sock over your hand and roll it up to your wrist. Repeat on your other hand. You have to use it a few days in a row for it to start working then twice a week (twice a week works for me) Has worked for me for years! Good Luck I understand how devastating it can be to have. :)
What about scary things that many people say about aluminium ...odaban and all this sweatblock products have ...
Your experience is good? Don’t you have problems ?
@@EvVaM over 30 years and zero problems.
I’m glad to hear this !!! Thx for answer!!! 🌸🌸🌸
T-Rexaan Doofinstuff do you use this products now ?
@@EvVaM Yes, for over 30 years now
@Melody Moon when you sweat, the sweat gets stuck in the hair and bacteria starts growing which makes it smell bad. Some doctors recommend shaving if you sweat alot.
Hyperhidrosis is a very misunderstood condition, peoples perceptions are often that you haven't showered etc. It still has a huge stigma attached to it, mainly because of commercials showing it in a bad light. It self perpetuates, you sweat because you're anxious so you become anxious because you're sweating, and so and and so forth. Thankfully medicine is moving on all the time, there's now much more you can do than there was as little as ten, even five years ago. This is good and I hope any of you who suffer have found what works for you and a way to deal with it.
In my case I had severe under arm, hands and feet HH. I was lucky in that it didn't start until I was in my late 20's, so school was never a problem. However, by this point, I was in a job that required shaking hands with people a lot and doing presentations. My hands could be clap-cold and you could see sweat dripping off my fingers. Anyway, fast-forward a few years and I'd explored all the options open to me with no success. My final option was surgery, an endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy, or ETS for short. A fairly intrusive procedure but not life threatening. I had the surgery and it was successful to a degree but I now get compensatory sweating in my chest and back and sometimes my groin area. There is a plus side in that it is more controllable with medication (Oxybutynin), but this does have side effects, dry mouth, eyes and nose and sometimes difficulty passing water. The point I'm trying to make is if you're at the ETS stage, please think very carefully before you have it done. Explore new options such as botox, look at ETS surgery as an absolute last resort.
I admire Sarah's courage as it's not easy to deal with, it wasn't for me at least. However, as she says, embrace it, tell people about it, explain it to them, friends will understand and help.
Best wishes to you all. XX
i really appreciate that you were willing to admit to this. i don't know that i have hyperhidrosis, but i do know i have issues with pit stains and it's nice to know someone else has a similar issue
Thank you!! I've had this condition (only underarms) since I was probably about 14 years old, I'm now 26 and this is the first time I've actually looked it up. It's been incredibly embarrassing as you know, I've tried like you have, all different brands to try and stop it and nothing ever works. Do you get BO as well? For me it's only occasional but when I do it's pretty bad. Even as I'm sitting here on my couch my armpits are dripping it's terrible.
Oh wow I just heard you say 2 years for 1 bottle. That's incredibly cost effective! Thanks so much again for this video. Very helpful!!
Robin K Chelsie Huff hello i have too sweating hands
Great video, by the way! Hyperhidrosis is terrible to deal with when you don't know what's going on, and you have no information or hope.
I had hyperhidrosis too for several years as a teen. I tried EVERYTHING, deodorants, powders, creams, prescription deodorants, and nothing worked. Finally a dermatologist recommended I try botox in my arm pits and it worked! So for several years, I had to get botox every 6 months. Eventually, the hyperhidrosis went away on it's own when I turned about 22 or so. I'm glad you made this video, as I know it's an issue a lot of girls deal with.
i wonder if this works on the face. i sweat soooo much from my face!!!!
Staci Anne C. This is me...what have you tried?!
nothing! idk what o do wih this. thats why i hateeeeee the summer. winter please hurry up
_sorry, my answer is very long. Sorry if my english is not perfect_
Staci Anne C. and Hee Vin Kim me too. My real problem is my face sweat (i sweat in every part of my body but my face is horrible) since i can remember.
I remember the only time i really stopped sweating is when i practiced a sport in a long period (rugby for 1 year and footing). When i practice i sweat, but after i was dry for a week.
I stopped due to injury and my sweat problem came back. Now i read a lot of infotmation about it and i really know my problem: i have a water retention problem due to too many sodas i drank, so i have too much sugar in my body (diabetes).
*My solution is personnal i do* :
1/ practice sport to eliminate the excess of water (i know that you rehydrate after, but for me, my body controls better water like that). 4 hours, and you must sweat ;)
2/ change your eating. Now i eat lot of vegetables and proteins, less of sugar (even complex sugar) and fat. Drink only water and green tea. NEVER EAT SACCHAROSE AND GLUCOSE FRUCTOSE SYRUP as possible. This cause a lot of water retention.
3 / magnesium + calcium + vitamin d cure. This point is my best personnal discovery. Magnesium is an excellent diuretic (good for heath, it doesn't deshydrate the body), plus many people are in lack of if. Calcium and vit d is for the electrolyte balance.
Staci Anne C. Hee Vin Kim I have hyperhidrosis on my face and a product called SweatBlock actually has worked for me. You can buy it on amazon. I just made a video on it... Just letting you guys know because it helped me a tonnnnn :)
Thank you, Liza!
Great video! I suffered so badly in high school and finally was given a prescription, basically Certain Dry that you can get over the counter now at Walmart, but 30 yrs ago I had to apply it, then tape saran-wrap under my arms and sleep like that once a week, but it was a miracle! I could not wear anything cute or cotton and colorful and wore flannel and light jackets over everything until I found this from my dermatologist!
I sweat in whole body generall in winter i dont sweat that much is oke but in summer i sweat all the time is so annoying i even avoid going out with my friends or brother i feel so nervous about that and i avoiding handshakes etc i was a social guy now i have like no friends... i have to find 1 solution soon btw with all that stress i have stomach pains sometimes i am 18 now the problem start at the age of 15.
Same here man. I love winter for that reason and dislike summer.
dude im right there with you.i think I am the worst case ive seen.and its sad because I am very handsome and athletic idc whats wrong.i sweat no matter what..
i had the same problem and i was really devastated so i had 2 laser operations. i know it is really expensive but for me it was the only way cause i tried everything already. the first time the operation didn't work, i was still sweating excessively but after the second one it stopped and now i´m sweating not at all! hope i could help you (:
Jana Knarr not even a lil bit.. :D
Elias Krauss well i wasn't talking to you ;)
Props to you for talking about this and hopefully being of help to someone watching :)
Love your eyebrows in this vid, they look great!
My story is very similar to yours. Except when I tried certain dri it only worked the first time I put it on and only for a few hours.
Thats me
You have to keep putting it on. Only at night. 10 mintues. After you get after the shower. Were you using the roll on or solid kind? Because it usual works really well.
Chelsie Huff hello i have too sweating hands
Chelsie Huff I had hyperhidrosis as well! I recommend watching the video on the link I share with you, the guy is a genius: ede06cb99q-z5o9en2o-5m7u8d.hop.clickbank.net/?tid=UA-cam
I stopped my piano classes when I was a child because my teacher got upset every time she saw the keys dirty and sent me to wash my hands. At that point I didn’t know/ understand I had a sweaty problem with my hands. I tried botox twice as an adult but didn’t work. I learnt to accept it and live with it but every social interaction still hard and sometimes scary.
I am so thankful you have done this video! My dad has this problem and I think I am going to have it, because I already sweat much more than other people. I am really really thankful you've done this video! :)
I'm 13 years old. I have hyperhydrosis. I tried telling my mom about it so I could get help or something to help me stop sweating. Mine is under my arms (go ahead laugh). Anyways she just ignored me when I said that I sweat excessively and she just said I don't wash well enough :(
I actually take showers in the morning and at night everyday. It's really embarrassing and I can't do normal things at school anymore :(
xoxo.amanda hi! i dont know you but i saw ur comment and i just want to say im here for u! i have hyperhydrosis in my underarms and well- it sucks. i cant wear anything and im constantly worrying about it. if u need someone to talk to let me know and im sure if you explain to your mom about this condition she will understand. chances are someone in your family has it too because you have to get it from somewhere (i think, im not a doctor so i cant say for sure but thats how it is in my family) i hope this helped even a little bit!
Ok thank you so much! It's nice to know I'm not the only one 😉
xoxo.amanda hi Amanda im 15 and I also have it under my arms and I never take my school blazer off anymore but my mum took me took the doctors and they gave me some strange deodorant that you put on at night and then wash off in the morning. I haven't yet tried it but I am looking forward to it and yeah I feel your pain it is soo embarrassing :(
Shanell kenton YT Hey, can you please let me know If it worked? I'm gonna try and force my dad to take me somewhere to rid the aggravating issue.
I didn't use the certain dri but I was given a different deodorant called driclor and it have worked a charm.
I have it too ! And just made a video about it. I definitely think it's better to put it out there than hide it away . It feels good to know you're not alone when you suffer from something like this.
I stained my chair at school and I had to wipe the seat
+Monchele Forever The story of my life.
Till I found Certain Dri 5 years ago, all I wore loose black tops pretty mich all the time. Mym mum used to hope I would wear a colour but I just couldn't. No one else I knew had the same problems I had and it sucked cos it was so embarrassing. It's great that you talked about this so girls abd guys like us with our condition don't feel shitty about having permanently super sweaty pits 24/7. Good on you : )
I have this, when i get hot, nervous, or mad, my palms sweat
You can develop social anxiety, you avoid social events due to worry over this issue, relaxtion, meditation will help but other steps need to be taken to get body and mind back in balance with natural methods.
Wow you're like a talking me right now. it's so great to see another beautiful person going thru the same thing we all go thru. I also use certain dry and it's being working so well for me. good to know we're not alone. now im working on relaxing and controlling my anxiety levels. which seems to help a lot. thanks so much for sharing.
You have changed a lot. You're so confident now! And I love you
i comepletely related to your story, down to even being envious of another girl! and your so right after high school you realize how stupid that is and you become more comfortable in your own skin :) im so glad i found certain dry as well when i was 15/16
I've had it since I was born and I feel really different and lonely when I'm in school. I feel like I'm so odd. But finding out that you guys also have it kinda makes me happy, lol. I know it's a problem, but knowing that I'm not alone makes me feel more okay with the problem.
Great video! It was very brave of you to open up like that :)
I've been having hyperhidrosis like...all my life. Same happened to me, I felt ashamed and uncomfortable with myself, I felt weird too. I was scared of holding hands with somebody, the first time on that was when I was 8, on school. If someone held my hand they would say ''ewww you're sweating'', and what could I do about it? nothing. My mum used to say to me that it was normal and that I shouldn't hide it. It took me years to. Now instead, people say to me that they don't care, that it's normal and that it doesn't change who i am.
Thank you so much for posting this. I have sweated from my hands and feet ever since I could remember. Glad I'm not alone. My best friend gets disgusted when she touches my hands. I'm very self-conscious.
+Aryana Stanton Hi please read my post I just wrote and I hope it helps.
omg, you are the first person i know that knows how hard and annoying this is! thank you so much for the tip!!
My experience is that itching is only temporary. I am not a physician but I haven't noticed any damage to my skin after 3 years. If your hands get too dry, try a little hand lotion. The important thing is not to give up trying the method. Most people will have extraordinary results within 2 weeks, maybe sooner. Some it takes longer-just don't give up! And follow the Bowling videos!.
i've had hyperhidrosis since i was born in my hands, feet, and underarms. it sucks but i've been using drysol and it works really well. i still can't hold hands or give high fives sometimes, but i definitely recommend it.
I have hyperhidrosis too! I excessively sweat on my palms, feet, cupidspoe, and armpits. They sweat ALL THE TIME!!!! U have helped me a lot! Thank U!!❤️
youre so brave thank you for sharing. its people like you that are helping educate others and advocate for hyperhydrosis sufferers. love from Australia
i find it great that you talked about it!! It will definitely help lots of people :)
I saw this on True Life and it had two girls who had it really bad. Thank you for sharing this with us.
I didn't notice Sarah mention it, but it is important to do your research first since aluminum is highly toxic and is tied to some bad diseases. Good luck in your continued search!
I hate this disorder. Im 15 and it's ruining my life. Its so awkward avoiding someones handshake. :(
It´s awkward how people complain about sweating on hands or armpits. I would do anything to only have this problems. I sweat everywhere. Armpits, hands, neck, head, lip, feet, legs, ass, balls. Just everywhere. But the biggest problem is the back. I can hide armpits. I dont shake hands or fistbumb my friends. But the back is terrible. You can´t hide it. And that´s terrible.
my friend has this and she wears black everyday too but i never knew it was for this.
I have hyperhydrosis too! I also used to think I was wierd when I was younger and my friends would also comment on how much I used to sweat from my underarms. I used to get these huge sweat stains, it literally seemed I ran a marathon. It was such a bad experience and I felt so embarrased. Until I saw your older video were you talked about it. It's been about a year now since I use Certain-Dri. it works wonders! And yes I get the occasional itch, but it is worth it! Thank you so much Sarah!!
I never really admitted it, but I Have Hyperhidrosis. I usually sweat a lot in social situations(school). and it sucks to because I push myself away from certain situations because of it. I feel for me personally, it is a mental thing because if I think about too much, it controls me, but if I'm not, I don't sweat at all. I started in 8th grade and now I'm an Incoming Sophomore. Thank you for sharing this because now I know I'm not gonna let this control me and i know that I'm not alone.(:
Ugh, hyperhidrosis is SOOOO annoying and embarrassing. I HATE it SO much.
I encourage everyone to do their research before using aluminum containing antiperspirants. I have excessive sweating basically all over my body and I think I'd rather just use coconut oil, or a lemon slice to cut the bacteria and have no odor.
I have it in my hands...history lesson; Fletcher Christiansen had hyperhydrosis, from Mutiny on the Bounty. Captain Bligh described it once via a journal entry, "he was prone to violent sweats in his hands that would stain anything he touched".
"There is no conclusive research linking the use of underarm antiperspirants or deodorants and the subsequent development of breast cancer." From the NIH's Cancer Institute website.
Without a doubt, hyperhidrosis is a handicap. It's so embarassing that your own mother or bf probably don't know about it unless you decided to wear the wrong top at the wrong time. But as humiliating as it was, the best thing I ever did was mention it to my doctor. I got hydrosal (pretty much the equivalent of certain dri) and it's been life changing, no joke. This video is awesome and I wish the younger me had seen it sooner so I could of had the confidence to tell a doctor earlier! x
hyperhidrosis Main Cause reasons :
1- depression
2- low self esteem
3- Shyness
4- inner grief ...
5-self humiliation(self hating) in Comparing to others
and other Subjective problems ...
i dont have any of the above..
yet i have the condition
The World Another cause for hyperhidrosis is something called "hyperhidrosis". Crazy, I know, right?
I think youre puting the cart before the horse there tbh Ive had all those things but it was a result of the condition not the cause
FINALLY!!!!! someone who i can relate to. I first began seeing i was really sweating in fifth grade, but didn't think about it that much until i got into middle school. I'm exactly like you, i could be freezing cold, but i would still have these huge stains on ALL of my shirts. I also gave up on white shirts because i would turn the underarms yellow, and i NEVER take off my sweatshirt even if you paid me. Even today, almost a freshman in high school, i can't control, or reduce it no matter how much deodorant i put on in the morning and during the day. It's just SOOOO embarrassing i can't stand it. So i asked my doctor to prescribe my to hypercare because im willing to do anything by now (no needles though).
