This isn't an AIBU but...

Can anyone give me any advise on this because it's genuinely making me miserable and I'm withdrawing from social events because of it.

This has been going on for a few years but is getting worse. My mouth feels like the Mississippi river. I can barely swallow before it fills with saliva again. I have to cover my mouth when I talk because I feel like I'm spitting at people. It's so embarrassing (and worse for the person I'm speaking to, I'm sure!).

Is there anything I can do to stop feeling like I'm giving people their 2nd shower of the day? 😭

@Celticliving this is treatable, which treatments has your GP offered?

Go and see your GP. There is effective medication for this.

Have you spoken to your GP? That would be my first port of call!
