Are you one of the millions of people all over the world who are affected by excessive sweating, or hyperhidrosis? It can literally rule your life, affecting the places you go, the things you do, and also what clothes you wear.
And no matter what job you do for a living, the problem can seem even worse when you are at work. Worrying about your excessive sweating can make you feel, stressed, uncomfortable and even embarrassed, if you think your colleagues and workmates have noticed your sweating.
If you work in an office, you probably have to wear a shirt and tie, a shirt thats thin and shows sweat stains easily. If you work in the warehouse, you probably have any number of manual duties that cause you to get over-heated and sweat more.
And if you do start to sweat, you start to get stressed, and that makes the sweating even worse!
You can't concentrate on what you are doing, instead you're probably spending more time thinking about how to avoid or conceal the problem. It can make it difficult to do your job properly or work in close proximity with others without you feeling overly self-conscious. You probably don't need me to tell you this, after all its most likely something that affects you every time you go to work.
Do any of these sound like the kind of thing you've tried just to get through work?
- wearing extra layers under your shirt or overalls
- disappearing to the toilets to try and dry your sweat patches
- keeping your coat on no matter how hot it gets
- changing your shirt or blouse during the day
- re-applying your deoderant during the day
But these just mask the issue and dont stop you worrying about it, so whilst your colleagues might not notice your excessive sweating, how much time are you spending hiding it from them that you could be spending being more effective at your job?
In short, worrying about your hyperhidrosis can take over your whole day, but you've probably never really realised to what extent.
Around 62% of adults said that going to an interview, confronting the boss, and other job-related issues made them sweat more, according to a survey by the International Hyperhidrosis Society.
The IHHS also found that people who were affected by hyperhidrosis in the workplace were limited to carrying out physical duties 25% of the time. They were also limited 20% of the time in carrying out mental and interpersonal tasks, 17% of the time in time-management and 11% of the time for overal work output.
So not only is hyperhidrosis affecting how you feel at work, its also effecting how you perform at work and the chances are you probably hadnt even noticed.
The IHHS have also commented that whilst hyperhisrosis is not recognised as a significant problem in the workplace, it can have limitations on performance similar to those experienced by workers with osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and depression.
If your office is air-conditioned, or you dont have to do too much manual labour, you might be lucky and be able to cope with your excessive sweating. But imagine how much better work would be if you didnt have to worry about it at all? Imagine if you were able to cure it, naturally, and more importantly, permanently?
Organisations like the IHHS are working to raise awareness of excessive sweating as a problem, in the workplace and in other areas of sufferers lives. There are a range of options out there for people with hyperhidrosis, for more information on one of them see the details below.
