Depression is a serious illness that causes a person to feel very downtrodden and hopeless about life. Symptoms that include a loss of energy, apathy and sadness are some of the early stages of depression. In its worst cases, depression can lead to suicide. If you don’t personally suffer from depression, you probably know somebody who has or who will.
Although depression can always return to a person, and likely has genetic components that pass it down in families, it can almost always be alleviated with proper treatment and care. Traditional care has always included therapy and medication (primarily antidepressants), preferably with a combination of the two. To get the combination right, the process can take a lot of work because not all medications and types of therapy work the same for every person.
However, there is more that can be done than paying exorbitant bills for therapy and medication. In fact, you can greatly improve your mood, both in the short and long term simply by changing your lifestyle such as by becoming involved in athletics and exercising. This is linked to the fact that exercising causes your body to release endorphins (and other feel-good chemicals such as serotonin and dopamine). Endorphins contribute to feelings of elation and joy because they are your body’s natural painkiller.
So, lets start exercising, people! :-D
