Hi All - my name is Cory. I'm new here, hoping to get back up on that horse. Getting over a very difficult relationship which aided to a 20lb weight gain. Need all the support I can get!

    Exercise helps with depression. I can attest to that!!
    Good luck, Cory.

    Depression does indeed stink. I agree with Shellbelle that exercise helps immensely, but depression makes it difficult to get the motivation to exercise. Stupid depression cycle.
    I wish you all the best. Hang in there.

    Don't be afraid to talk to your doctor if it doesn't get better. Some forms of depression are a matter of brain chemistry and short term medication can do wonders.
