First of all, english is not my mother tongue, so bare with me 8)
Just wanted to introduce myself, and maybe bring something new to the discussions.
I'm 25 and have been suffering from SA and HH for some years now. This has lead to somewhat social isolation. Have lost contact with lots of friends, but have a few good ones left. Have never really told anyone about my situation, besides from my shrink, so it was nice to find this forum.
I feel like the whole SA / HH is a catch 22 situation, they are feeding each other, and it becomes a viscious circle. I've always been shy, but I also kind of like meeting new people and talking to them. However I just can't seem to control my nervous system in social situations, I always end up getting stressed out to the point where I'm thinking I'm going to have a panic attack. Half an hour in a "stressed" situation leaves me drenched in sweat, I suffer from underarm HH, and for the past couple of years also HH "a little south of the border".
For my SA, I was prescribed Zoloft, but this really didn't do anything for me, it actually felt like I was getting more depressed before I stopped using it.
For my HH I have tried something like driclor, but I couldn't stand it, made me itch like crazy, and kept me up all night. I have also tried strong deodorants but with little effect. When it first starts dripping, it pours.
What I have had best effect with, I have not seen mentioned here nor have I found it at any other webshop. It's a Norwegian webshop, and I'll post a link so you can see what it is (not trying to promote anything here :roll: ) http://mentuswebshop.com/product_info.php?cPath=22&products_id=32
It's basically like a sanitary pad or what you call it. You stick it on the inside of your shirt, and it soaks up the sweat. It's scented so you won't be smelling neither. It's worked great for me, but it doesn't cure anything, and it's kind of a pain sticking it of the inside of t-shirts all of the time.
What really anoys me is the sweat in my lower region, I didn't have it in the beginning, but it has just grown stronger. It will leave marks or dampen chairs and drench my boxers to the point where I can collect a pint of sweat from them
As for the future, I'm going to try something called NLP for my SA, and also the stop-sweat forte+.
Kind of a long post this, but it felt good to vent. If anyone got a tip for preventing lower region sweating please let me know.
