My younger sister (16) has always been a ray of sunshine. She has always been outgoing and athletic, the opposite of me. About a year ago, I noticed that her confidence and self-esteem has gone down. She is no longer active and outgoing. She avoids large groups of people and wouldn't dream of dating. I thought it was normal, you know its her teen years so I wanted to talk to her about it and see if I could help.
She later revealed to me that her confidence has indeed decreased but its not because of her teen years, its because she started sweating under her arms a lot. She took off her jacket and showed me. She had a huge puddle under her arm almost to her breast area. She said she is self-conscious about it so it makes her draw back. I bought her some Certain-Dri, some other product that starts with a D, some larger shirts that don't hug her underarms, all of these went with no results. The doctor says she has doesn't have hyperhidrosis. What can I do to help?
