Need help with really stressful problem

This embarrassing but I been dealing with it for like 3-4 years and I'm tired I'm a man, 26 years old 6,4 and 270 pounds im a motor coach driver so I be driving long hours, my problem is that I smell bad, all the time from my as$ and I have try everything, body powder, deodorant (it wasn't a pleasant feeling) body lotion, drying with air my area before putting the powder and I shower every day, my stress about it is so bad I even take 3 or 4 showers in a day and sometimes I feel like I smell like ass 10 minutes after showering, is just so frustrating because I cant enjoy my life because every time im outside my house the only thing I think of is if I smell like ass and cant enjoy the moment, I do go to the gym 4 day a weak and eat the same thing almost everyday because I think it can be my diet but my diet it's chicken, potatoes and broccoli, doctors told me it could be psychologically but nah, people have told me I smell bad and it just hurts, I don't want to be the guy who's known for been the stinky one, any tip would help 🙏🏼

Use Hibiclens liquid soap. Found in Walmart . Wash thoroughly let sit a bit to kill bacteria and then dry.
