Have you tried exercising, and did it help? What kind, and how did it make you feel?

You should try biking in the winter. Get a second bike, like a rigid alu MTB with platform pedals and studded tires, layer some winter clothing, and go to town on salty slush, fresh snow and ice. It can be exhilarating!
Sounds like it could be interesting to try snow biking. Doesn’t often snow here, and when it does it rarely sticks. Maybe 1-3 actual accumulations per year, so my gravel bike is suitable practically all the time. It’s just the cold that makes it unpleasant to me - layering when it’s 50F is fine, in the 40s F is doable if it’s sunny. Anything below that is just miserably uncomfortable to me because of cold wind to the face and the need to adjust layers as I warm up and cool down.
