Double check your heating/temps, it may be avoiding heat, perhaps the heat globe is too high wattage or too close?
Best to fill in the how to ask for help questions to give members a bigger picture of your setup and help pinpoint why your lizard might be behaving so. welcome

If it's a boy, it might be too hot at the top. What's your temps?

 

[Daughty]

he's only been doing this recently. heatin is roughyl 75-82 degrees. he's got plenty of spots to hide from near the top where the heat cant reach him

weird, sounds like a heat issue, but hard to tell w/o all the facts.
