so why don't people want to exercise?

uh, riiight. That sounded embarrassingly correct....

Not that taking Prozac is anything to be embarrassed about, but other people do seem to go normally through the day without blowing up at somebody, even without a bike ride or two under their belt.

Well - I guess being addicted to biking is better than most other addictions!

I do take anti depressants. My psychologist says that 30 to 45 minutes of exercise a day 4 to 5 times a week is equal to a dose of anti-depressant. now I've been taking anti-depressants for years and have a fairly complicated case and I don't feel that I would ever be able to go without the anti-depressants, but I feel like I can take less because of the exercise.

I feel like that exercise is part of my whole depression treatment plan. It includes my meds, my regular visits to my counselor and doctor, healthy eating, exercise, adequate sleep. If any one of these things is neglected, I feel at risk.
