Anxiety Attack while Exercising?
by xanaxed, Apr 18, 2007 12:00AM
Have any of you experienced an anxiety attack while exercising?
Lately while i've been running, I start getting shortness of breath and it feels like i cant quite catch my breath, then I'll need to slow down and when i do i experience a panic attack. I've been exercising on a regular basis for about 2 years now and only recently i've been experiencing this. I've had anxiety attacks for about 2 years also. Has this also happened to anybody??

Though sometimes, when I get done with a particuar grueling jog i can feel a lump in my chest and tingling in my cheeks which at first scared into thinking I was about to have something bad happen to me. I think it has to do with the temp outside. It onsl has happend when the weather is warmer.
Does your attacks happen regaurdless of temperature? maybe your getting to hot and that is setting them off?
