Anyone else feel really hot/overheating when overwhelmed or overstimulated? The last few years i’ve been getting this feeling, i think it happens when i’m overstimulated or anxious, because i get it more on ADHD meds which typically make me more susceptible to overstimulation. Its like I feel hot but i’m not actually hot because when i cool myself down i just end up being cold but the hot feeling stays so i feel hot and cold at once. It always feels impossible to escape and is incredibly uncomfortable and i don’t know how to stop it. When i get it at night i always wake up sweating as soon as i drift off and don’t sleep. Luckily it doesn’t happen often at night, but when it does it usually happens a few nights in a row until i take a sleep aid to fix my sleep schedule, then it stops. Anyone else get this or know how to stop it?

Layering clothing and using a fan can help manage the temperature fluctuations. It's essential to identify triggers and find ways to cope with overstimulation and anxiety to reduce these episodes.
