Does exercise help with mental health?

[Anonymous]

Do you guys have personal experience on this matter I've heard it helps but I've never really gotten into to exercise but if it would help with mental health I would give it a try

[noemiii]

100% yes. There’s always going to be some nay-sayers that will say “no it doesn’t I’m still depressed” blah blah blah but majority rules that exercise is beneficial for your mental health and has been proven time and time again.

Nope.

I exercised, was still depressed. Nothing changed at all. You're exercising your body to be healthy, not your mind.

It's equivalent to someone telling you prayer will help your mental illness.

It never works.

Jesus, the two women who commented are so, so wrong.

Depends
Not always
I always dreamt of having ripped body , so after working out I feel happy that I am getting closer and so it boosts my mood

It doesn't even have to be exercising. A longer walk out in nature helps also.

[ShesRad80]

yes it does. even so much as a long walk can help

[CrimsonAngel09]

Well dang, I should have been completely healed of depression then when I exercised.

[ShesRad80]

@CrimsonAngel09 i have ptsd- it absolutely does help. im in healthcare i didn't use the word healed, i agreed that it helps. big difference.

[Mynameisbobby]

Yes it does help! I suffer from ptsd and I walk 4 or 5 miles I feel better. There is a book I read called positive addiction by William Glasser great book!
