[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here--I agree that there is a compulsive element after a while--for those of you who get and rely on the runner's high, do any other exercise/sports etc. give you the same feeling? [/quote] The question is bigger than that. Are you fighting off depression or anxiety? Maybe the running is working but it is a precarious thing to rely on, especially since it sounds compulsive. Is there any reason you haven't gotten professional help? I have depression. I run 30 to 35 miles a week and it absolutely helps my mental health. But I also take medication and see a therapist. Last week I was pretty sick and couldn't run. If it was my only support I would have been pretty miserable. plus there are days when I have to miss a run because of something with my kids or whatever and I can do that without wigging out.[/quote]
