Hi there,
I’ve googled whether there’s a link between ADHD and excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) - albeit a slightly small one according to the few studies I accessed.
Though I’ve never sought medical help with my sweating I’ve always had an issue. Sweaty hands as a child. Excessive sweating (especially of the torso) in social situations especially and often sweat starts to pour down my back at seemingly random times (ie. Environment not to hot, not been exercising etc). Whilst I am an almost 45 year old female, my experience of sweating in this way has been life long. It was exacerbated by drinking alcohol - which I’ve stopped altogether for 2.5 years. My question is do you notice a link between ADHD and sweating? And do any of your meds help or worsen it? If so, which ones?
I have my psych appointment on Monday and hoping to identify a suitable medication - I would like to use your insight to help shed light on this aspect of ADHD and how meds impact with it.
Thank you 🙏🏼
