Help! I suffer from what I consider to be excessive night sweating. Most often this occurs after I have had a few drinks (anywhere from 3 to 8 beers or mixed drinks). This however doesn't occur every time I drink and it is so random and hard to predict that I am constantly thinking about it. I can’t get it out of my mind! Anytime I am considering staying the night out at a friend’s house to avoid driving home while intoxicated I panic about the possibility of an unexpected night sweat. I am 20 years old and from what I can remember this has been going on since I was 18. It however seems to just now be increasing in frequency not that I am drinking any more now than I was then. Please help me figure out how to avoid these without altering my lifestyle to much, I do like to go out and have a few drinks with friends.
What usually happens is that I wake up on whatever side I was sleeping on dripping in sweat usually from my shoulders to my thighs. The sweat is so bad it could be compared to being dunked in a pool. This usually also means that the bed is soaked along with the sheets and whatever I was wearing.
If anyone has any good advice I would really appreciate you sharing it with me, even if it’s just a good way to way to warn friends and others that im sleeping with before it happens. Thank you.
