Anyone unable to do any physical activites from anxiety???

i have this my heart is always racing 24/7 i tried to workout some today because i heard it help with the heart but i was so out of breath ans i get out of breath from just walking up the steps and i think i have a heart problem idk its really scary

Thats me . Heart palpitates when it beats over 110 . my heart always beats over 100 when im walking around . Working out causes me so much anxiety because of the physical symtpms . Start slow . Im going to start slow . 10 min work out increase to 15 then 20 then 30. Start slow and switch to higher level every two weeks . Im going to try this starting tomm . Im also eating healthier and taking vitamins . I think anxiety has made me lazy and now im out of shape and anxious. Bad combo ! Also Im what they call fat skinny . I look like Im in shape but I feel 1000 pounds out of breath all the time . Hang in there this is my life !

That is very common mark. Remember, anxiety is exhausting on the body. So it makes sense that you would not have energy to exercise. Or do much of anything.please do not worry about your heart racing. It will not hurt you at all. It’s the adrenaline that is causing it. The brain sends a signal to release adrenaline when a person has anxiety or underlying anxiety. It eventually wears off.

I am someone that has had anxiety for over 30 years and I can tell you that anxiety can pop out of nowhere. None of the symptoms are harmful but I know how annoying they are and weird. I’ve had probably every one of them at some point in my life. But it doesn’t have to make our lives miserable.

one thing I have Learned over the years is not to overreact to the anxiety and symptoms. That only makes everything worse.

if I feel my heart start to pound while doing physical activity, I just slow down a little bit and just do things a little slower.

but I don’t stop doing everything completely. I still exercise, I still go up the stairs may be a little slower if I feel that way,. When you’re going through an anxious.time, give your body some slack and just slow down a little.

But remain determined that you are in control of your life ,

The anxiety will eventually settle down. The proper mental attitude is of upmost importance! Take it in stride as best you can.

also if you have issues in your life causing anxiety, it’s best to speak with a counselor or therapist who can help you better manage the anxiety. It helped me a lot.

There are also great talks on YouTube about anxiety and what you can do to help manage it.

ONE very important thing in the management of anxiety is proper breathing! even just taking five minutes to refocus and breathe correctly can’t help a lot. That’s another thing you can find on YouTube.

theres not a certain cure for anxiety. It’s more of a process. That is something a therapist can help you with! I hope you feel better soon. But you’re going to be OK! Take one day at a time ❤

I meant to say refocusing in breathing properly can help a lot. not cant

yes i do and thats why i stop working out, anything i do that makes my heart races i stop doing them cause of this anxiety,

I so want to get rid of my tummy but as i as i even think of exercising or walk i get such a weird heartbeat that i just stop at the moment. I feel sad because 3 years ago i could do this stuff easily.

I have been to soooo many doctors and they dont know why my heart beats so fast during exercise!! Its pumping properly but its in the 240's!! Its very annoying cause I can really only play football for 20 minutes without needing to just collapse onto the grass and take a break. I also hate the easily shortness of breath and feeling like my heart is about to explode out of my chest!

Does your heart skip beats or just beats real fast?

i feel like i got so much anxiety and so much worry that it completly drains energy from me. like all i want to do is just sit down and not do anything and i hate it.
