Exercise and mental health

Okay, after my morning run, I have felt on top of the world!

I know that people always say that exercise can help someones depression, but do you agree with this? whats your personal views on the subject?

and why does it help?

It won't cure depression (it takes meds for that, sorry to people who seem to think nutrition and exercise fix everything) but it will help your mood, which is obviously good for people with depression. I think it has something to do with releasing endorphins and helping your brain chemistry. It also gives you a feeling of self confidence and accomplishment because you actually got off your ass and did something. If I go home, take a nap because I'm "too tired" to go to the gym, then spend my time online or watching TV or on the phone, at the end of the night I feel lazy and worthless because I can't make myself do anything. If I went to the gym, then came home to watch TV or whatever, I feel like a valid person because I actually had some self discipline.

I must say that after I went running I came back smiling and laughing and I felt good, I really think I have an extra part of energy which needs to be used up.

my boss at my last job was a fucking bitch and a half. everyday after work i'd go on a long run which seemed to slowly release my anger and elevate my mood. of course i'd get angry all over again the moment i saw her face again but it became motivation for me to go run again that night. i love how exercise and mood are so affected by each other.
