It is probably true that very many mental disorders, like other illnesses, would fall to improvements in exercise and diet. But often enough no progress on those is possible without some pharmaceutical relief first.
- hirvi74 4y agoI wonder how much of that is due to societal demands. With work demands, commuting, household chores, errands, etc., I can clearly see how people struggle to find the time, energy, or desire to better their lives. I'll admit, I should be better about my diet and exercise too. However, I am plagued with the same issues of lack of energy and motivation to better my life and I also have a "mental disorder" I was born with. I prefer to call it a 'societal incompatibility' or 'evolutionary maladaptation' -- much like an appendix which may have once served a more important purpose many moons ago, but tends to only cause issues in today's time.
