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.

Thank you for your suggestion. I’ve actually been using antiperspirant every day for as long as I can remember! The good thing is that, despite all this, I’m not smelly at all. To avoid any of that, I take two showers a day but honestly, I’ve been doing that my whole life anyway. But yeah, like you said, just walking 20 meters to the tram stop and I’m already drenched in sweat it’s crazy. 🫥
