Manage Your Depression Through Exercise

[soprano]

And then there's the issue of if you become sick or ill and cannot exercise and become depressed.

Yes.

I was raised by people who view depression, and mental illness in general, as a sign of weakness. Whenever I read about exercise being recommended to help with depression, I worry that the mental illness stigma is going to get that much worse, because it becomes even easier to point fingers and say, "If only you would get off your tail end and work harder, you wouldn't be this way!"
