will there ever be a cure?

a cure. something that will make us, normal? im talking about no side effects (compensatory sweating) at all. something that will help us wake up without having to think about what embarrassing thing will happen to us today due to our hh. hopefully within the next 10 years or so there will be that cure. but, what if there will never be one? i keep thinking that if they havent found a definite cure for aids or cancer or diabetes, what makes me think there will be a cure for hh ever? all those other ones seem more important to come up with a cure for... idk, sorry for the rant. im just really desperate for a cure...

I hate to sound negative, but... probably NO cure happening. Too much is unknown and HH is probably not going to be a big money maker, except for arm pits... and thats why they inject people with poison like botox.

I've been wondering if I have HH. When I talk to pretty much anybody except my parents and girlfriend, my anxiety gets bad and I instantly start sweating and it's obvious from my forehead. I'd guess the only cure is to cure anxiety, to not care how you come across to others.

sprawling, maybe not in the near future, but eventually i think... sweathelp.org is a pretty good site dedicated for hh sufferers

I hope they develop a cure in MY lifetime. HH produces enough anxiety which increases sweating which causes anxiety. It's a viscous cycle.

I'm affected by hands and feet for the most part, full body sweating during the warm months. I can deal with the feet. The hands I've been dealing with for many many years. Ionto works wonders, except when I'm living out of state part of the year. It's made my life challenging to say the least. I feel for you younger folk. When I was younger we didn't have ionto, meds or support. They would suggest counsellings due to be anxious. These days there are options and support to help those who are suffering through it. It wasn't till I experienced dryness did I realize how anxiousness was caused by my HH. It's a viscous cycle. Talking about it freely with family, friends and others really does help. There's no reason we have to suffer silently.

sprawling, i think i have pretty much the same severity of hh as you. while my hands dont bother me much (thanks to ionto), the feet do! i mean, my shoes! i dont like having to keep getting new ones due to the stench of them lol :/ how do u deal with that? what kind of things/remedies do u have/do for that? thanks

Hi there...

i was telling myself that today.... how much i want the cure

but i guess the cure is only in your own hands

its already in your hands

now fight your ass off, action, go to exposure therapy

or go out yourself, even though you feel like a loner on the streets

just go outside and sit in a bar and drink some nice drinks

and just make yourself sit there without any thoughts

practice right there even though you feel depressive of the fact having sa

and feeling so anxious

when you're alone, you can escape to the toilet and outside door

as many times as you want

and you can also practice whenever you feel like it

but we have to fight harder...

we are stuck in a cycle of thinking ''yea i got sa, so i stay at home''

i know that sucks, no offence to everyone

it's just that i've seen this happening in my own life all time

and i wanna break through it, break the stone it's a bastard

but still, i'm thankful for having the chance to think more about life experience.

rather i still wished for no sa, but it's better than having for e.g a dissability that you cannot walk or talk.

i know it is the third lagest mental health problem, it is

and that's why we should fight as the best

to back off the anxiety

soon, hopefully.... someday

maybe a 2012 goal?
