Boston Area Psychiatrists Agree! Exercise lessens Depression and Medication Necessity

You are not alone!  In today’s fast-paced, high stress and sometimes crazy world, more and more American’s rely on psychiatric and mood altering medications.  However, many of these medications come with unpleasant side effects, including sleep disturbances, dry mouth and even liver damage.  That is why so many psychiatrists agree that the right exercise program can assist in reducing the necessity of these medications, and lead to a more positive state of mind in the patient.
