I've just recently had anxiety "return" into my life and for some reason it seems a little worse than last time :/ today I had this wild heat flash where I felt really hot and my head felt hot and then once I calmed down it sorta went away, I just want to know if anyone has felt that way before? Is it normal?

Yes. Absolutely. Try reading to book by Lucinda Bassett called "from panic to power. It really helped me.
