Compulsive exercise leads to irrational behavior

When an individual is affected with this disease, they find themselves with intense anxiety, depression, irritability, feelings of guilt, and/or distress if unable to exercise. These individuals maintain an excessive and rigid training regimen regardless of being fatigued, incurring injuries, or getting sick. A feeling of insecurity and unworthiness drives these individuals to try to be stronger, faster, overtraining and pushing past the exhaustion limits of the body. Due to this condition they begin to become withdrawn, secretive and defensive with friends and family.
