Be sure and ask about your health condition and whether you can start an exercise plan. It would be a good idea to plan on having a complete physical at that time. If your doctor determines that you can start an exercise plan, ask him or her for some guidelines so you know when you are doing too much, or when you are not doing enough. Next, figure out how you want to exercise. Many people like group activities such as aerobics, water aerobics, etc.
Exercise is a good stress reliever and can help relieve anxiety.
Anxiety in our lives can cause many symptoms. During the past six months I have undergone several stressful and traumatic situations that culminated in what my doctor called an episode of major depression. I've also been experiencing severe premenstrual depression. On two occasions I felt so confused and depressed that I was afraid I might hurt myself. Once my cycle started again the depression melted away completely.
