    Introducing myself.

    Hello,

    I'm so glad I found this website. I've been suffering from social phobia/anxiety/panic attacks for years. My stress levels over the years have escalated so much that I find it very hard to control them. It's so bad now that I can't work and find it hard to cope with the smallest things. The worst thing about all the symptoms is the profuse facial sweating. It happens 99% of the time (even on the coldest day) whenever I have any type of social interaction. It's very embarrassing, upsetting and isolating, and has brought my life virtually to a standstill. I've tried everything but to no avail. I hope this site will help me, and stop me feeling so hopeless and alone.

    Hello Micoto you!

    No need to feel helpless and alone now - you'll find plenty of help and support here.

    I sympathise with your symptoms - although I have never experienced the facial sweating, I suffer from extreme neck and face redness when in certain situations. It's a right pain isn't it?


    Pleased to meet you!

    Re: Introducing myself.

    Hello Mico and welcome...

    You are not alone with the facial sweating. I've been getting this myself over recent days and it's most uncomfortable. I have to carry tissues or a roll of kitchen towel with me.

    I know that it is my anxiety and panic attacks which cause this but it may also be a side - effect of medication. I don't know if you take any medication but it may be a factor if you do.

    I hope you get what you need from this site.

    Take care
