Well, before my accident, I may have expressed my anxiety by burning it off with activity... I'd still do that now if I could! But the injury has gotten me very fatigued and just being mildly active can degrade my speech and cognitive functioning... so i try to pace myself and rest.

*Maybe* your body just has energy to burn that's caused by the anxiety? The anxiety might be giving you some adrenaline... like a fight or flight kind of response. I'm sure hoping it's just as simple and uncomplicated as that.

I was in tip top shape when I was hit too! I tend to be grateful that I was too... I think I'd be worse off now if I was in worse shape then. And I try to remember that my body will be able to get into shape faster because it has muscle memory of being in such good shape. But I know how sad and frustrating it can be to think of what you could do before the accident.

I'm so sorry you have to deal with this.
