I Have Depression and Anxiety. Please Stop Telling Me to ‘Go for a Run’
I think the headline here says it all lol.. www.self.com/story/depression-anxiety-exercise
Now I don’t doubt exercise helps but then what if you have certain issues that stop you from doing that?.
“Feelings of lethargy are common in people with mood disorders, and exercising when you’re feeling that low-energy can be as close to impossible as it gets. Asking us to transcend the symptoms of our illness and do something that isn’t currently within our reach is a patronizing strategy.”
Also these people never take into account the fact many people who have mental health issues have physical problems that make it doubly as hard.
And no I didn't copy paste this from Crazy Chums lol.. Physical exercise you say?? lol, I can't be fucked to even write this out again, to much like hard work.
