random night sweats.

I used to get night sweats months ago during my extremely bad anxiety episode. I haven't had them since october. This morning though I woke up at 6am and had no covers on and was cold so I put the covers back on. I woke up a few hours later sweating. I got up and put on shorts and a tshirt and got cold again. I'm still slightly clammy although its cold in my house. I took my temp and it came up 98.1 so no fever. Could my anxiety be causing this recurrence of nightsweats and this weird clammy feeling now?

hi erin, i know you have trouble with pms and hormones can do this as well. You are really having a rough time, hang in there sister you usually do so well, we need some yoo hoo days :)

I'm on xanax but no antidepressants. I've noticed a slight increase in my anxiety the past few days. I didn't feel anxious when I woke up but I do remember some weird/bad dreams. I hope this goes away. This was my least favorite anxiety symptom.

It could be anxiety causing your night sweats. There's such a long list of symptoms. I get those too when my anxiety is really high. That was a good idea to check your temp to see if you had a fever. You don't so it's not the flu. Are you on any meds for your anxiety? I've found that some of the antidepressants, which also can help anxiety, can cause sweating.
