I'm not sure that is a concern needed to be discussed with a doctor but I am sure any doctor would welcome the topic.
As always, before I go running, I am well fed and not in an anxious or anemic state (the same rules apply to driving). Yoga keeps my mind more active than running, possibly because the muscles I am working on are less developed. Bird Dancer, please do share your thoughts on the other two topics
AB, since you asked for it, my experiences can be found at Depersonalization and derealization – Grounding techniques I’ve found effective – Bird Flight
