You have a sedentary lifestyle

Physical activity has been proven to be linked to happiness and a positive mood. Some studies have shown that exercise can be used as an effective therapy for people who suffer from schizophrenia,  depression and other mental disorders, to reduce symptoms in people who have already been diagnosed.

“People need a project that gives them a purpose in order to feel good,” Dr. Heitler explains. “Having nothing that you feel really invested in makes you vulnerable to depression.”

Instead, try to find something that can make you feel good. Having a hobby is a great way to spend your time; you can try to learn something new, such as a new language, sports and anything that makes you happy.

  1. Mental health is probably the most neglected benefit that is not easily available to the average middle class to lower middle class citizen in this present pandemic world that America faces.. There is still a stigma attached accepting that one is in need of mental health treatment, while at the same time mental health treatment is not available to the below average person in America.
    Strangely enough a lot of people were drawn into thinking that the Trump era kind of quasi democratic cum autocratic /fascist type of government with tax cuts for the rich and vastly not much for the average middle to low income people; it defies reason, but still is in . Yes democracy is
    need of repair as is mental health care.
