sports helping you overcome panic attacks and anxiety ?
Byhas anyone here ever done a sport which helped you to overcome Panic Attacks and anxiety ?
and if so which sport did you do ?
the gym used to help me a lot with feelings, and then I learned that hormones cause or contribute to all this, so, I had those checked.
Thyroid can cause panic attacks, anxiety, and a whole bunch of things, as well as other hormone imbalances
So along with walking, i recommend you have a blood test done for thyroid, sex,adrenal, cortisol, DHEAS , and then consult with the experts like those below

I have awful anxiety and am currently taking medication for it, but I also walk regularly at least an hour everyday. I find that walking really helps me calm down and relax. Good luck.

i was in baseball for all four years in high school. i was carefree, and laughed at everything untill junior year when drama happend btween me and my friends and i began to question myself and became anxious alot. junior year and senior were horrible on me. baseball was always one thing i looked forward to in school. i had decent friends on the team and had fun. but i did play baseball most of my life so i had experience and it was easy to relax and play and not worry about doing things right.

ABSOLUTELY! Exercise is wonderful for panic attacks. It helps you focus, relax, directs your energy in a positive way, makes you feel better about yourself, helps you to eat better, to sleep better. The benefits are endless. You are on the right track. ANY sport is good. ANY at all. Keep doing what you’re doing, and you will be ok. Good for you.

Until I cured myself of anxiety through dietary means, sport was the outlet that lowered my energies to the point I was less dangerous. I always used sports in order to keep anxiety in check.
Which sport? Name it! I even let anxiety run my life to the point I chose the perfect career to earn money and keep myself out of harms way. For 15 years, I was a Drywall construction guy. $1000 per week and a free 8 hour a day cross training, aerobic exercise. I thought it was the perfect plan. and other sports included the obvious ones associated with people who are addictive in nature, have used for all time, running, weight training, karate, and many fun sports I had the good fortune to learn. I am an expert skier of any type; water, snow, and if it had a motor, I used it like a musical instrument; Jet ski, motorcycle, go cart, auto racing.
Now that I have found the end of the well you tap when you push your body too physically far, I was forced to find out what was killing me. I kept my body in a 20 year "celiac sprue"( google the word). Doctors were ne help in identifying the very cause of the learning dysfunctions and hyper anxiety that came along with being smart and not being able to learn.
So my long answers come down to a small story; Yes I have controlled the rage known to come with Asperger high functioning autism through excessive exercise. The foggy anxiety would only leave while endorpines were coarsing through my blood and brain, so I stayed there until I was too tired to cause trouble.
Now that I have removed the allergen that has been killing my mental abilities, I have been shocked to find my stability sky rocketting and my anxiety so easily controlible, I have been trying to let the nations increasing mental dysfunction have the known cause. Our number one food group is the allergen that is known to cause most levels of anxiety dysfunction in wheat, rye, barley, malt and oat proteins known as gluten; the diet of the herbivore.
In having spent little money, less than $200 US, I had the genetic test that tells you what your particular food allergen may be. I used Prometheus Labs in California to genetically identify whether I fit the profiles of the gluten intolerant. $100,000 and 20 years of suffering the potentially deadly auto immune reaction that even yale new Haven Hosptital is trained to avoid genetic testing. This 99.9% accurate and the only thing that in a court of law can free or condemn you, is not good enough for the practice of medicine when they can waste $99,800 to feed their families with.
Me and my wife are gluten free. We try to tell the public of this aweful lie, but people cannot grasp the range of implications that wheat is the cause of the decline of the mental and physical health of the gluten intolerant pack human pack mammal species found through genetic testing of all Italies school children instituted by Dr. Alessio Fasano at the University of Maryland. Dr. Fasano is a doctor teacher in the fields of the most cutting edge of research being taught to our newer doctors now.
My emails are open to questions.
Warning; do not rely on current methods doctors say is "Gold Bond" I have failed both tests. The genetic test saved my life and my mind and marriage.
