Maybe for your depression. If it hasn't helped mine in the last 40 years, it sure ain't gonna start now.

As a fat lad with ADHD, little galls me more than knowing that exercise really is good for my mental health. If I walk or scoot to work, I'm generally more alert and attentive than if I drive.

Dunno how true that is of depression, mind.

No therapy.

Only exercise.
