I too feel (now that off all meds) that exercise is my only avenue for having any self-esteem. Just a little over a year ago I had a great self-image. I was in very good shape, muscular and very proportional. Then I started Nardil and eventually turned into a hungry, tired, fat-ass.
Anyways I can relate to your situation somewhat. I too, feel that great exercisers 'high' for a few hours. As the day goes my mood takes a sharp dive. Much like you explained it can carry on untill the next day. This make it VERY difficult to exercise the next day since I feel like crap which drains all my energy. Then I feel worse for doing a half-assed work out. It's a vicious cycle.
