I have not yet found a medical reference that shows that "stress" depletes B12.
If you have one I'd like to see it.
There are laymen oriented sites on the net that clump Bcomplex together as helpful for "stress". But I do not think that the B12 in them is adequate for supplementation.
More on B12.

When body parts get cold and then warm up, tingling is typically felt by everyone.

My hands and feet get cold quite often now, so I've been trying to nap lately to get them warm again. It invariably works even if the nap is short.
Anyway, I think it must be vascular, as suggested, at the same time as nerves are affected, or shortly thereafter.
I wonder what cortisol does to/for/with/against B12. Stress of course typically affects cortisol levels and we know stress depletes B12.
Whatever chemical it is that's being released after I nap - I wish I knew what it was. Then I'd take more of it from other sources. The 'tingling' isn't painful or annoying; it's almost comforting. It seems to be related to the body's effort at healing.
