Anxiety and exercise

Mental health
1

for the past 3 weeks I have started exercising press ups and sit-ups  and felt fine but today I did it and felt like I couldn't breath and throat felt like was closing it only lasted a few mins but thought it was going to trigger a panic attack. Anyone else feel like that?

Hi Lee

I get that as well  I am a runner so when I had a race a few weeks ago I knew My anexity was bad felt couldn't breath had to keep breathing in to catch my breath and also my thoart felt like it was on fire and really tight, This is anexity.

I was cleaning yesterday and moving around when I sat down felt like I couldn't breathe stomach tightness etc it sucked

This happened to me when i played football

Im an active basketball player. Since i had this anxiety.. Im no longer active playing ball, as in i stopped totally for more than 2 years now.. Cuz when i play in just a short period of time, i feel i couldnt breath, thoart tigthness, heart palpirations.. Even in just a little exertion, i feel that way. Anxiety really suck my life's out of me.

This just happened to me yesterday, i was all fine doing push ups and sit ups i was really extremely tired, i sat down to take a breath and relax i started feeling sick in my stomach like its tight and swallowing and i started panicing and feeling my throat closed up with short breathe. I think you are experiencing anxiety as well as i am. Don't ask me how because i honestly was not even thinking about anything it just triggered by it self.. it sucks.

I wonder why that happens as you would not be worrying about anything, it just all builds up and make you have a panic attack out of nowhere.

I used to be so active playing football/soccer but now I don't the littlest bit exercise triggers panic symptoms PROBALY bc exercise is like a panic attack so will trigger it

Same here. Exercise is what helped me cope over the years but now my anxiety morphed into chronic fatigue and makes exercise a struggle.  I know  I have underlying issues and I hope I can get my energy back if I don't let this fatigue take over.  I miss playing sports competively.

This happens alot for me reason at all. I could be walking up some stairs and it happens, or even sitting down....ughh it sucks to have panic attacks that just randomly happens all the time.
