Stick a pin in it ^^^.

In all seriousness, antiperspirants are bad for ya. They basically create plugs in your sweat ducts preventing the body from doing what it's meant to do. It doesn't mean you stop sweating though. You keep on sweating and without a route to escape to the surface of the skin the sweat bursts through the walls of the sweat ducts and damages the surrounding tissues, the capillaries, and more. We're so hung up on the social ramifications that we do everything in our power to prevent unsightly sweat but it's not good.

What Hale said... move to the tropics. No joke.

It's been going on off and on for about eight years. What I've been doing lately is using Mitchum unscented deodorant/antiperspirant and Davidoff Cool Water to block any bad scents. Then I just either wear black/white/navy, or keep my arms downish.

Try taking off the sweater-vest for Christs sake.

That sounds straight-up horrible. I was reading into this. Plus with what turbo was saying about the expense and it only lasting a few months, it doesn't seem very practical.

Scratching that. Thanks, WFbrosandturbos.

So now my options are:

1) Move to the tropics,
2) Deal with it,
3) Very, very breathable clothes,
4) Medication.

I've got the same fucking armpit shit. It started when I was 25ish and thought it would go away but no.

My dermatologist does some kind of surgery that removes the gland in the armpit but that sounds like a gamble.

I think some type of quick dry system in shirts could work but I have yet to see any on the market.

Who knew there were so many sweaty bastards on WF. It's a good thing you guys are all gay, cause no woman would get near your dirippin, stanky asses.

She says otherwise. I'm very clean and hygienic.

Try meditation. I know it sucks because my cousin has it. It starts when you're nervous and get worse. Just don't do the surgery (utter bs).
