    Regardless of how hokey it may sound, or the scientific evidence there may be, it works for me.

    In the UK they recommend regular exercise (preferably in the fresh air) and a healthy diet for treatment of depression instead of, or along side, antidepressants. Personally, speaking as someone with chronic depression, exercise is essential. I haven't been able to exercise as much recently and my mood dropped and all I wanted to do was eat carbs and sleep!
