    Yeah exercise never helped with my depression, not in around 40 years of living with it.

      Same, I’ve battled chronic depression since 1989 and exercise has had a nominal effect. That said, what the studies seem to suggest is that a lot of core/ab work, as well as vagus muscle work, seem to help. So not just regular excercise.
