Abstract des Autors
Physical activity is a useful tool for preventing and easing depression symptoms. When prescribing exercise as an adjunct to medication and psychotherapy, the complexity and the individual circumstances of each patient must be considered. Hopelessness and fatigue can make physical exertion difficult, and some patients are vulnerable to guilt and self-blame if they fail to carry out a regimen. A feasible, flexible, and pleasurable program has the best chance for success. Walking-alone or in a group-is often a good option. Verf.-Referat
