» Joy Butler - Depression

Interesting subject that affects many people, not just shiftworkers. It's been said that exercise helps depression and I know firsthand that it does. I'm not talking about taking a stroll several times a week. I'm talking about serious workouts including weight training, but it DOES work and may be an option for shiftworkers to seriously consider.

Absolutely, Joy!

I've heard it said if we could package exercise in tablet form, it would be the greatest wonder drug of all time. Thanks for your comment. It may be time to revisit the vital benefits of exercise for shiftworkers. Have a great day.
