Best I can guess, is that the aerobic benefit is there -- but it's really the isolation of muscle groups or something that seemed to help me when I went through that sort of feeling? All I can tell you is this: I felt something that sounds like what you're describing until I started lifting weights; even though I stopped the weights years back, the benefit still seems to be there for me; and, while I'd love to say that I never feel that way ever anymore -- that'd be a lie. I do still get that feeling now and again.
What I can tell you, though, is that it's really and truly never been as bad since those days. I *think* that's largely because I had to learn to control individual parts of my body better. Now, when I start to feel that feeling coming on, I can -- dunno how to describe this -- *change* it, somehow? Head it off at the pass? Whatever I do, it does help me. Partly breathing, partly posture -- honestly, I think it's partly age, too. I think a lot of it is as simple as 'lots of stuff just doesn't seem that important anymore?'
At any rate, I do hope that something someone writes here will help you feel better -- even if it's not me. :^)
