So just how common a problem is excessive sweating. Well if your a sufferer of excessive sweating you may think that you are suffering alone. Let me tell you this right now any form of excessive sweating is a big big problem and there are many many people all over the world suffering.

OK everybody sweats and we all know that it is a normal function and in fact is quite healthy to sweat (not what anyone who suffers from excessive sweating wants to here). Sweating is a way of controlling body temperature, the sweat evaporates on the skin which in turn cools the skin. The sweat comes from glands which are located all over the body but are higher in concentration around the armpits, palms of the hands. soles of the feet and the forehead. In all everybody has between 2 and 4 million sweat glands. it is also known that women have more sweat glands than men but mens are more active.

So what is so called normal sweating. Well we would all expect to sweat a little when doing physical exercise, when we were eating a particularly hot or spicy curry, if we were ill of had a fever/high temperature and of course on a hot day. But anything that you feel you are not in control of is causing you anxiety or discomfort is not what I would determine normal sweating.

I know a lot about sweating, it is something that has effected my life for many years. I have sweated for as long as i remember but it was at its peak around my early to mid 30′s. It was something that effected my every day life to a very large extent. I was always known as the sweaty one. I tried to hide it as much as possible but more often than not had dark sweat patches under my arms and when ever i sat down left a sweaty mark on the seat. I was always very conscious about my sweating. I would always be very careful about clothes that i brought, I always tried to buy cotton clothes and mainly white that didn’t show up the sweat.

Anyone who suffers from excessive sweating will be please to know that there are ways to control your sweating. You may feel at your wits end and tied of having sweaty underarms, sweaty feet or sweat palms. I used to find it was a vicious circle. I new I was sweating and that made me feel anxious and the more anxious I got the more i sweated and the more I sweated the more anxious i got and so on an so on. it was a very hard cycle to break. But it can be done with good success.
