Yesterday I advised somebody that physical activity is highly beneficial for mental health and can help more than medications would alone. The community did not like that. I am here again to remind you that physical activity is Paramount to mental well-being. Go out and garden. Take a walk in the park. Go for a jog, whatever it may be that gets you out of your current location and allows you to reflect and think.

    Take your pills then while your waiting for them to kick in maybe you should take some time to touch grass.

    Reflection won’t fix a serotonin imbalance, but exercise will increase serotonin production and time away from stressors will give you the clarity to better plan and live your life.

    It could be that I’m an arrogant twat or could be that maybe just maybe I’ve been clinically depressed for most of my life. And maybe I’ve decided to spite life instead of taking an easy road.
