Mental Health thread

Uh, this isn’t crazy enough to qualify for this thread. Take it to the community surfer journal.
Yes, I hear motivational books cure depression and bipolar etc all the time.So there is no crossover between motivation to improve oneself and mental health
ok
The mountains of data on exercise and mental health are pretty tough to argue against. I don't think it's a replacement for therapy and/or medication, especially for those with clinical depression, however most of the field now consider exercise a leg of the stool.
A good diet is also a leg of the stool I would argue… if I were the type to argue.
I think you responded to the wrong person?
Nobody would suggest exercising isn’t good. Same with healthy eating.
A good diet will give you a good stool for sure
Many may not appreciate the impact that a sedentary lifestyle and poor diet can have on levels of anxiety and the like.
By the same token, many may not appreciate how anxiety and depression can hinder a person‘s ability to exercise and eat well, despite their best intentions.
Additionally, many may not appreciate that strict adherence to exercise or diet regimens can become/are due to mental illnesses of their own.
Commonly expressed in popular culture…
OCD? Bulimia? If the strictest is maladaptive and leads to illness then whatever caused the unhealthy strictness is the real cause, right?
I think you’d be hard pressed to find a single cause of any type of mental illness.
No lithium batteries here

Exercise is bad for you. Stop doing it.
My foul boar finally came and now I realize I have a lot of driving to do to get to good learning spots. I'm trying to have fun, but AT WHAT COST to my mind?
