In my experience, being age 31 now and having chronic mental issues:
- A good workout can sometimes provide a "high" but that's not something one should rely on / not what you should be training for.
- Starting at a certain age (~30) you need to learn to go at least a *bit* easy on yourself, because your body won't recover the same.
- If you're dealing with health issues (including mental ones!!!) the last point applies ten-fold, and you have to accept that some days you can only do 5 minutes of cycling and a few curls with half the weight you normally lift; this is usually still better than doing nothing and you should still feel good with yourself for having done it.
Still struggling to embrace these principles myself. I keep over-training and then going inactive again for a week because I can't recover.
