I have a great cure for depression. Give depressed people hammers and access to all those chips they want to implant in their brains, and let them smash them to smithereens. That will really pick up their mood!! (and mine)

What many don't know is that one of the best cures for depression is just to take a long walk in nature. Instead they put people on heavy drugs nowadays to keep them numbed down. Now this...

All exercise is good for depression and many of the other things that ail us, but especially like you say, doing it in nature!

Peter whilst I agree to some degree not all depressed people take pharma drugs and clinical depression and many other forms are so debilitating for these dear people nothing seems to help them not long term anyhow...we are fortunate not to be of this group of people.

I can almost guarantee if they took 2-3 hour long hikes in nature everyday for 1 year they would have no more depression.

I ask my 8 and 11 yoтАЩs all the time if I can implant a tracking device in them. Starting from the first time I asked when they were much younger, they have both always said that was тАЬcreepyтАЭ and adamantly opposed the idea. ЁЯд╖тАНтЩАя╕П. I just asked how theyтАЩd feel about Bill Gates being able to access a tracking device I want implanted in them. The 8 yo screamed тАЬNooooo!!тАЭ And ran away while the 11 yo said тАЬmom, that takes creepy to a whole new level. Bill Gates gives of a creepy kiddie toucher vibe. Again, no tracking devices, ever. Who would ever voluntarily let someone put a tracking device in them?тАЬ ЁЯШВ
