The first thing depression patients are prescribed are antidepressant medications but a new study shows that regular exercise can outperform leading antidepressants in loosening symptoms.

It doesn’t matter how long the exercise lasts, what it matters is that patients exercise. This may involve gym-workouts, daily jogs, aerobics, etc. Exercise has been showed to help people with their self-esteem, and bring a psychological boost.
It has been showed that 30 minutes aerobic exercises can cut down depression symptoms by 50%.

Depression is caused by chemical imbalance in the brain and regular exercise triggers positive changes in that area. Even a 10-minute walk may help boost energy.

The conclusion is simple. Whether you suffer from depression or are just feeling blue-go out and do some exercise.
