I also have a once a week drink of whiskey, not sure thats helping either.

    But for sure, if I do weight training, I feel terrible depression for the next 3 or 4 days... its terrible.
    That's interesting. Why do you think weight training makes you feel depressed?

    I was told to avoid stimulants like coffee. What if you avoid caffeine and then try working out?

    not sure why the weights make me feel like that. I was told it could be because of the raise in cortisol it produces and the lactic acid build up it induces.

    AngelBebe95:

    What triggers me is the sudden rush of a thought into my mind of something that makes me anxious (personally: my failing marriage, financial concerns, etc) and I get an almost immediate cardiac reaction and feeling that everything is happening a million miles an hour.

    This right here. Ever since I got tested for marfan's syndrome, it's always the heart scare.

    sounds like,"Body memories." In my 20's i was like top gun flexible and sometimes if I even jump ski style i miss the slopes. Ironically I pass out if I get too cold. And the 1st time was at the ice rink. So when I even see ice skating on tv now, it makes me feel depressed over my loss of youth.

    For me it's mostly, like, school and long-term projects for my AP Lang class. I've had anxiety for years, but nothing has set me off as often or intensely since I was 13 (about four years ago, for reference). Another big one is leaving the house without showering, for whatever reason. I think it's a control thing. Bright lights and loud sounds definitely make me more generally anxious though.
