I must admit that in my office the thermostat is only moved by those of the gentler sex.
Been offered benzos and SSRI's many times. No chance I'm popping them...ever.
Why?
Because they're awful drugs.
Benzos = highly addictive and tolerance builds quickly
SSRIs = side effect profile is so high that you're very lucky if you avoid getting something pretty dramatic. Most also have sexual side effects. Oh, then there's the battle of eventually coming off them or staying on them for years until you become numb and void of emotion.
Please don't start a conversation surrounding this.
So whilst I haven't been given a medical diagnosis, it looks like I have pathological blushing.

I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy - still have no idea what I want to / can do career wise! Looks like I'm going to have to do something outside in a warm climate though.
Surgery is an option where they cut the nerve which causes blushing but you're pretty much guaranteed to get compensatory sweating as a side effect. BAH!
