Thank you, both of you. Much appreciated! 🙂
I will talk to my professor and a counselor and see what the school's take on this is. As much as I dislike being marked as a student with a “disability”, it's still better than flunking. I'm guessing they might require some medical reports – currently I don't have this, but I planned on seeing a physician anyway. Wish me luck! -

Heh thanks… I asked because I wasn't sure just HOW absorbent they are. Then again, it doesn't really matter, because my excessive sweating isn't THAT bad. I mean, I don't walk in puddles or anything. Luckily. YET. I hope I can keep it that way, so these advices are much, much appreciated! 😀 😎

Thanks for the useful input, guys! (and girlz! ;))
Ask yourself a few questions – how badly does perspiration affect your everyday life? Does it happen for no apparent reason? If your answers are yes, it’s likely that you really have hyperhidrosis.
Yes and Yes. So that would mean i need professional help, huh? 🙁 Not a happy thought… But I was sort of afraid this is the case. 😮
Ramona, I think it is hyperhidrosis if the excess sweating is strong enough to affect your life in a bad way. There are many possible hyperhidrosis causes… I'm guessing that anxiety is also one of them.. ❓

Will this stuff stop my sweaty feet from getting slippery? I reeeaaally need that!
Yet I bet this footwear is all super special and who knows if my parents would give me the cash to buy a pair. 😐 😕
Hmm, should be able to afford flip-flops, however. It would be a lifesaver, since I hate wearing socks in the summer. Now if only I can find a pretty pair… -

I guess there are two answers to this question. I first noticed that I sweat a lot when I was 14. I started to use antiperspirants and that solved the problem – so obviously my underarm sweat isn't caused by hyperhidrosis. At the same time, I noticed that I have an issue with sweaty palms and feet. I thought it is normal and that it would go away if only I had antiperspirants for hands… I made peace with it – after all my palms are not dripping so it is bearable.
Recently I heard about hyperhidrosis from a friend who has it – but her sweaty hands are actually dripping. I am still not sure if I have hyperhidrosis, but I think that might be the case.

I sweat a lot when under stress. Apart from during school exams, this also happens during arguments with my friends (yeah, no comment but some of them can be mean ***) or when I feel nervous because I have to stand up in front of the class and read my report out loud. Stuff like that. It would be so easy to deal with heavy sweating if only we could control our emotions!
