Armpit sweat conscious leading to extreme breathlessness

Sorry if this is the wrong sub.

I'm writing this while on bed, 3 hours in and can't sleep.

this might sounds crazy, but breathing becomes difficult once i get even a slight sweat on armpit.

been on Driclor for 1month+, I apply it 1-2 times a week, and its a hassle to tolerate it.. its extremely unbearable to apply before sleep, so i apply during the time I'm most relaxed and less active to allow it to stay dry.

last 2 weeks noticed that even though I'm using regular spray antiperspirant (before sleep), i need to close my armpits which makes them sweat just a bit, and this makes BREATHING DIFFICULT.

This might sound crazy but its so bothering, last weeks.. i sometimes fall asleep 4-5 hours after laying on bed due to this feeling. And its not in my head.. i find myself lose breath even though I'm not conscious of the sweat when it happens, but when it happens i become conscious of the sweat, even during day (not just during sleep time), only then i notice there is a really low amount of sweat and it bother me so much.

Help please.
