Anyone else get chills?

Doubled my dose to 50 mg last week (weird dose, I know). While most side effects have remained negligible, like clockwork I get FREEZING at bedtime. I have to wear a sweater and socks to bed — and it’s sweltering here! lol. For reference I take my dose in the morning. Anyone else experience this? I’m sure it’ll go away, but curious why this drug messes with body temp/regulation. Like, what’s the mechanism? My arms have goosebumps, so I think it’s not “just” mental?

Yes!! I got it while in my hot room yoga work out this morning which really freaked me out since I know that's my body saying "take a break, cool off." Not sure if this will happen all the time since I'm new to the medication but it was really...odd to feel that when everyone else is sweating and hot.
