G.,

I have had both hot and cold flashes with anxiety...but it is usually transient and temporary.

Does this coincide with your discontinuation and start up? Could be an s/e?

Hi

I get this symptom from time to time and it's usually a sign my anxiety is high.

Have you spoke to your doctor about this? 10yrs is a long time to be dealing with this.

That used to happen to me when my anxiety was very high. A huge part of that was a horrible sleep routine and inadequate sleep. Getting more sleep helped A LOT. Not thinking too much about the stuff that bothered me and made me anxious also helped a lot. Try to stay busy with your daily activities and really put your mind into them. Being busy in this way can be a healthy way to refocus your mind. Also try meditation, walks, reading a good book, or some other relaxing thing.

I also had these symptoms before. It's grueling experience. I can't focus, I can't sleep at night so my functionality during the day was greatly reduced. It affected my work significantly. My doctor thought that the side effects of my medications and the sleep deprivation aggravated the headaches. He recommended that I should try sleeping longer, easy for him to say, how can I do that when my head is about to split open right. Eventually I discovered some natural remedies and routines to help me sleep. I tried nutritional supplements like melatonin, kava tea, endoca hemp, and routines like regular meditation, aromatherapy, and massage therapy. It helped me calm down, relax, and ultimately fall asleep, that significantly alleviate my headaches.
