Me & Sweat

by Neti
(Jakarta, Indonesia)

Hi, my name is Neti. I'm 23 years old. I never knew there were so many people who suffer from excessive sweating like me. Finding these resources online has helped me deal with the sweating problem.

I started noticing the "Hyperhidrosis" a few weeks ago. This disease, if i may say that, really bothers me very much, especially in the social environment. I usually sweat much more in front of a lot of people. That's why I normally stay away from really crowded places...

The biggest problem is that I'm affected by hyperhidrosis in many areas--my hands, armpits, legs, and face. The facial sweating is my biggest problem. I can't hide it from anybody!

People can literally see my sweat. Especially when I'm nervous. My face gets wet and I can't wear make-up the way I'd like to.

This is taking a big toll on my self-confidence. Please help me...
