Do calorie deficits always feel horrible?

I've been on my first calorie deficit for about 2 weeks.

I'm eating high protein, getting plenty of fruit and veg, healthy fats all that stuff, occasionally having treats like chocolate and cake if I've got a spare few hundred calories. I get 8 hours sleep minimum.

But I am exhausted, my head hurts, I have this throbbing vein between my nose and my eye, I have dark circles and skin is breaking out.

Is a calorie deficit always going to feel this bad or am I not getting enough nutrients? Do I need to start taking supplements or getting even more sleep? Is my calorie deficit too low?

25 year old female, 67kg, 5'11" and I aim for about 1200 calories
