Just a simple question to those of you suffering from depression, anxiety or are just going through a tough time. Now or sometime in the past.
Have you tried exercising, and did it help? What kind, and how did it make you feel?

Most people, including ND, can form habits, it’s mostly that people don’t know how habits are formed and think that just doing the same thing will eventually create a habit.
To create a habit you need to have a trigger, just telling yourself to go for a walk is not a trigger because you might do that or not. A trigger might be feeling bored, finishing work, etc. I recommend watching https://youtu.be/75d_29QWELk it talks a bit about this, also reading the difference between routine and habits and how to form habits (kurtzgesagt also have a habit journal to help with it). I also tried for a long time to form habits by just forcing myself to do the same thing, it never worked.
I’ll have to watch that later
