Hyperhidrosis is a disease that chronically produces excessive sweating in one or several parts of our body, conditioning personal relationships and social activities. People who suffer from hyperhidrosis can see their quality of life affected and therefore have a significant impact on the relational sphere. They can live with it, but it does not prevent them from often feeling great stress that makes their daily life difficult, hindering their personal, work and social life.
It is common to meet people who suffer from hyperhidrosis and live a stress added by the need to feel dry and not smell bad, this inevitably leads them to enter into a conflict in which they program the symptom over and over again, that is, the symptom becomes chronic and a loop effect is generated. These types of conflicts are called self-programming.
There are different levels of the symptom: mild, medium or severe. The latter modifies the relational behavior of the person, and can result in withdrawn behaviors: avoiding social activities, sometimes causing a social phobia. They may also have difficulties with manual handling: handling paper, pens, buttons, tools, electronic equipment or musical instruments, etc. They avoid greeting with their hands, so as not to come into contact with the other, as this stresses them out. In hyperhidrosis it is not uncommon to find a manifestation of facial flushing in people who have this symptom.
What biological meaning does hyperhidrosis have?
Experience: Our brain interprets that the person is in a situation of danger, fear, feeling stained.
Conflict: The person has the need to slip, let go, escape from the situation. Not being sure of doing a good job. Castrating father or boss. I want to free myself from my father, my job or my boss. Feeling of being manipulated.
resent: “I want to escape, I need to escape from a trap.” “I protect myself from the outside world.” “I don’t want the other to hold on to me.” “I am afraid of contact with others, if they touch me they will hurt me”.
symptomatology: The body will create a layer of separation, a curtain of water.
Case: Female patient referring difficulties to relate. She couldn’t be in places where there were a lot of people, sitting at a table with several people was very stressful for her, and she couldn’t be easily seen by a man either.
During the session, there was evidence of stress experienced in her childhood, the place of origin of her symptom, where she experienced fear in a situation from which she could not escape, a frontal fear and where she felt “stained” by a man from her trusted environment. : “stained” her innocence with inappropriate caresses for a 6-year-old girl. From that moment on, she activated a survival system: her hyperactivity in her thyroid, resulting in hyperhidrosis.
With it, the conflict of “stain or attack” in the mirror was worked on (since in the repair phase of this symptom we cause acne or pimples on the skin and this makes repair difficult) to understand and repair our gaze towards ourselves. Case taken from The School of Biological Decoding by Lola Villaescusa.
The palmar hyperhidrosis It is the excess of perspiration in the palms of the hands. Even the palms get dripping from the excessive amount of sweat. If I present this symptom, I am necessarily experiencing an emotional conflict of “loss of references with respect to my father” added to a work conflict. Hands is “work”. The father can be symbolic or real.
When the excess of sweating is all over the body, then we are talking about the fact that I am experiencing an emotional conflict in which I feel dirty. I have experienced touching, rape, incest, therefore I sweat a lot, to have to bathe and clean all that dirt.
If my sweating is excessive only on my feet, it means that I am experiencing an emotional conflict of “Keep looking for my mother”. Maybe my mother abandoned me, died, gave me away, ignores me, etc.
How do I release that biological emotion?
I must have more confidence in myself and in life itself. I must demonstrate my decision, my limits. I must love and accept myself. I must defend myself with everything.
