I also know that grabbing a quick fix with antidepressants is very common, but my clinical depression is serious. Maybe it would be a lot better, and a Prozac would work like it should, if I exercised, got regular sleep hours, etc, etc. I'm still feeling sorry for myself. I won't lie.
I know it's easier said than done. What I've been doing is at least doing 15 minutes of exercise bike, cause it's hard to justify going a whole day without it, it's just sitting there right beside my desk! Ideally, I'd get 45 min every day, or at least 5 days a week.
The trick is to set a schedule and then to stick to it. Starting out with 10 or 15 min. Then, you develop the habit. Then it's easy sailing from there, supposedly
