Too bad it doesn't work for everyone. I exercise a lot and it has made me no better.
It gets tiring and frustrating seeing exercise touted as that one weird trick online that will fix you, ignoring that depression or anxiety are highly individual and complex conditions.
- gandalfgreybeer 3y agoAs someone who was diagnosed with MDD, it's not something that will magically fix you. But it's something that will (should) improve your base mood. My floor was higher when I started to exercise. It also gave me something to focus on. I feel like it's the same thing as saying exercise doesn't cure obesity. It won't fix it if there are no other diet and lifestyle changes but it helps and is a vector in the right direction.
