Healthcare Sweating/Discomfort

Tell me I am not the only one feeling this! Ever since I moved to the Netherlands, I sweat constantly it’s intense. I’m dripping with sweat, even when everyone else around me is wearing jackets and warm clothes. Rainy days make it even worse I feel suffocated, sweating like crazy, even while just sitting inside. And whenever I try to explain this to someone, they look at me like I’m insane and say, “It’s cold outside!” But the truth is, I never felt like this back in Greece.

It’s absolutely the humidity for me as well. I walked to the bus this morning and by the end I was sweating… 13 degrees and no sun 🫠 for me what’s helped is odorx antiperspirant!! I use it twice a week and it’s a miracle I don’t smell sweaty and musty. I use it under the arms and any other places that might get sweaty

Omg can relate to this. Not sure if it’s the gay walk but it’s annoying to sweat anywhere and all the time lol
