So recently ive been down a bit because of my HH and was wondering how you guys deal with HH. Ive had this condition since childhood and it has got worse now at age 22. I use to only have palmar and plantar HH, but now I have HH in armpits that excrete endocrine sweat I think( the one that smells terrible) which is somewhat controlled by deodorants.
Also I have like "situations induced facial HH", I hope you know what I mean and if you know the correct term please let me know!
For instance, I was on the car with a couple of semi-close family members and they asked me some embarrassing question ( not even that embarrassing) and I would immediately starts pouring sweat out of my face because I was a bit nervous about it and that would trigger the endless HH sweat cycle many of you know(at first you get nervous for some reason, sweat starts, then you get nervous about sweating, which makes you sweat more)
When my family members saw, they where in awe, they could not believe I was sweating so much and told me if i was ok. I just told them I had been on the sun for a while waiting. I mean Im so embarrased about it and I dont know what to do in this type of situations. What do you guys do in this type of situations?
HH has shaped so much of my personality in a bad way in my opinion, and I am so embarrassed about my condition. the only people that know my condition are my parents and siblings. I've hid this condition from almost all the people I know. Its just too much embarrassment for me to let people know.
For me the worst part of my condition is this "situational HH" that Ive talked about. The thing about facial HH is that its so hard to manage. drysol? on the forehead? very ineffective and glyco works but the side effects I hate them.
i hope people in the same situation can give me some advice with how to deal with this. sorry for the long post and have a dry day.
