@wanderquest – I had cold spells when I first started stimulants. I also get cold when I’m under high emotional stress or tired. Herbal tea (eg chamomile) really helps.
I do also have mild Raynaud’s, which started before I began taking stimulants. Mostly harmless at this point, though I have to wear layers of socks in the winter, and now even slippers or socks to bed or I won’t sleep well. Mostly I like to gross out my sweeties after carrying grocery bags or driving by showing them a few fingers which have gone totally white from the second knuckle up.
Anyone that dares to say “but it’s not that cold” gets my ice-cold hands on their neck :-).
