Gatorade... That is for the weak. I go with one of these on mornings like this. Works wonders
I'm so sorry you're going through this: I have POTS/MCAS and am in the fifth year of a PhD program, so I identify very strongly with what you're saying. I also live ~ a mile from school, and get unusually sweaty walking in. Having a chronic, invisible illness while young, when everyone supposes you to be perfectly healthy, can be incredibly socially isolating and depressing. I've been lucky, and was able to see a great POTS doctor since high school who's helped me immeasurably.
You mentioned you were drinking fluids: have you tried salt supplements? Many people with POTS find these very helpful. In my experience, packets that contain glucose work better than just straight salt (glucose aids intestinal absorption of salt). I take one of these each morning, and they help me with pre-syncope, energy, and brain fog:

It's great that you're still exercising, but keep in mind that exertion can be a trigger for POTS. Mild exercise is good: just be careful to avoid the vicious cycle of exercise -> symptoms -> frustration with symptoms -> harder exercise to try and 'get healthy' -> worse symptoms.
If you have any questions or just need someone to talk to, feel free to pm me. Also, I don't know what field you're in, but if you have any questions about applying for PhD programs, I'd be happy to help with that too!
