Introducing myself.

[micos5]

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 Mico:welcome:to 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!

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
