Sweating too much sucks!

[recluse]

It affects me so much....I feel dirty even though i am hygenic. Whenever i am nervous (which is most of the time) i can feel the sweat drip from my armpits, everyone else will feel cold but i feel hot, my hands are all slippery from the sweat, my feet almost squelch in my shoes......This is from not doing anything physical! I can imagine other people noticing it and thinking am dirty and smelly and it makes it worse!

The worst thing is when it comes to shaking hands in interviews and things, i can just imagine the person looking disgusted and wiping his/her hand after i've gone.

Is there any sort of way you could perhaps cleanse yourself of the cause of your perspiration?

I found some great stuff when I was in high school. I used to sweat buckets too, especially if i felt self conscious. Plus I used to walk to school which took about 15 minutes so on a humid day I was dripping wet. One day my whole tshirt was wet (no jokes about a wet tshirt competition!!)
Anyway the stuff is or was called Driclor. I think it was called something else. It is usually in a blue and white box. It is pretty strong stuff. My armpits used to itch if I put too much on. You can put it on lightly and then tab with some tissue to get the excess off or roll it onto a tissue and then dab it on. You put it on at night so it works overnight. I was in heaven once I found that.
