Depression: Diagnosis and Treatments

By EmpowHER

As a woman diagnosed with dysthymia (a form of depression), I personally have experienced the benefits of exercising with a friend. Although I usually think of exercising as a solitary activity, I decided to try working out with a co-worker right after work ended.

I’ve been working out almost every day after work for two weeks, and I’ve noticed a major improvement in my mood and the way my body feels (and I’ve even lost weight). Of course I still have my depression, but it is much easier to cope with now that I feel healthier, feel better about myself, and have something fun to look forward to every day.

Other factors that might be contributing to how I feel is taking OxyElite Pro pills every day as well, and maintaining a healthier diet.
