Btfo by your own study link.
>>The effects of exercise when compared to psychological treatments or antidepressant medication were small and not significant (g=-0.22 and g=-0.08, respectively
Do you even know what what means? It means exercise worked better than a pill.
Anyways this is a worthless meta study, which they even admit in the body because most of the studies were too small and had procedural problems.
Most exercise studies in any field are pretty bad Because they only last 6 weeks or less and it takes a little longer than that for your body to really adjust and be able to do true vigiois exercise.
You have been conned.
I have looked into this hard. Psychiatric medicine is a complete con game. I know everyone around has been telling you it’s the best way and such break through have been made.
It’s not true.
Doctors hate the exercise prescription Because it undermines thier entire model of care.
Trust me on the exercise.
Then get to a CbT psychologist and work on changing your environment,
Skip the psychiatrist.
Having studying neuroscience brain chemistry too long I can tell you psych pills are bad treatments for 99.9% of cases.
