Do I have a problem here?
« on: August 14, 2009, 02:13:59 PM »
Ok, since I've started running again, I've pushed myself into a tough run 5 times a week  , two rest days, one of them focusing on something else completely
Now, that might not seem like a problem, but on my rest days I feel restless, sometimes even aggressive, almost like I "need" the feeling of getting out there.
Anyone have something similar?

Hm...I can say that I have never felt that before.  It could be that your pushing yourself too hard or perhaps and going off the deep end, are you taking any sort of medication and or performance enhancing drugs of any sort?

I can't say that I take drugs/medication for it, I have a feeling that I got a liking for that feeling after a run, where I feel great.

An addiction to running. It's surprisingly common. The most recent famous case was eminem who replaced drug addiction with running addiction...

dont go too far. be careful.
"Parents always think kids are wasting their youth, and always have done [so] down through the millennia," says Tom Forsyth of RAD Game Tools. "'That Ug, always holding things. His front paws will develop in funny ways. Why can't he walk on all fours like normal proto-hominids?' And so, whatever the kids spend the most time doing, that's always what parents think is a waste of time, and what is corrupting their lives. It doesn't matter what that is. If all they did was homework, parents would be worrying that their kids aren't becoming well-rounded people. And, in fact, parents do this - enrolling math nerds in karate classes and the like. There is no way to win - parental paranoia ensures that kids are always doing the wrong thing."

Yeah, I am quite addicted to hiking myself and exploring to find neat things.

Addicted to exercise. Be careful, as asia said. Addictions of any kind are bad in themselves.

Running, or any kind of exercise really, releases endorphins.  Endorphins give off a very pleasant feeling.  You're just addicted to the endorphin rush.  as AsiaBunny  said, it's surprisingly common.
