It may or it may not. Some people say that strenuous exercise DOES help to quell panic attacks. But others say that it only makes things worse. In fact, for many anxiety sufferers, moderate exercise is better than strenuous exercise. But, as I said, results may vary. If you find relief from running on a treadmill, by all means do it.
