Anxiety and Exercise: How to Cope

I think sometimes exercise makes my anxiety worse. My heartrate goes up from exercise which seems to get interpreted as fear and then all my other symptoms follow and I feel like I need to stop immediately. I can hardly even do self-care without that becoming a source of anxiety as well :(

I understand how you feel. I can’t exercise because of it

I feel this so much. Any excitement or raise in my heart rate gives me anxiety which a lot of the time leads to a panic attack. Idk what causes this but it makes it hard to do things I'm supposed to do like shower or exercise.
