Yes most people claim exercise to be very beneficial. Everyone benefits from exercise whether an addict or not.
As you have posted everyone is different and sub affects all of us differently. We welcome your experience but please be careful to not make it sound like this is how all people on sub will feel. When explaining your experience please take care to use words such as in my experience, etc. We do not want readers to think that what you describe happens to everyone. I realize there are other’s who share in your experience but there are many who have been on sub long term like yourself that are doing just fine. We have many members here that have been on sub for many years with no intent to get off that are very happy with their sub maintenance.
I am sorry you are having a hard time but if it were me I would try to stress less about it. The mind is a very powerful thing and if you are expecting to feel horrible your brain may very well increase the chances of that happening. Many members that were on sub long term and tapered off say they wish they hadn’t been so scared the whole time because in the end it wasn’t bad. I wish you success in your taper and a life full of sober happiness!
