Ever since i was little i would have the worst case of sweaty hands and feet.  so bad i hate touching things because it feels so weird  Idk if it is a medical thing or what but they sweat unusually and idfk what to do about it and am trying to figure out if the extreme sweaty hands and feet could be a medical condition?"  I only breathe out of my mouth and not nose so wonder if that could be it

I dunno, but my hands are so sweaty that I have left marks on my laptop where my hands rest when I use it, and I can't get them off. :/

haha i have the EXACT same thing, although it runs in my family, i don't know if it runs in your family too, but i think it does.

its called hyperhydrosis. it means that you have either too big or too many sweat glands on your hands and feet.

actually, my hands and feet are soaking right now, it unpleasant, i know. :(
you should go see a dermatologist or a skin doctor and he might give you something to rub into your skin to decrease the sweating. i use Drysol, it kinda helps :P
