- steve_adams_86 6y agoI’d echo that and add that it refreshes my perception of the otherwise mundane. This is extremely helpful in allowing me to reevaluate things, internal or external. I have a bad habit of being too sure of myself, often pessimistically, and I suppose in a way this does reduce depression as the study suggests. I find it lifts weights off, provides more optimism where it was missing and less pessimism where it wasn’t helpful. I’ve also seen it lead to trembling terror and nihilism in others so it’s very much a YMMV kind of thing.
