Exercise Reduces Need For Medication

I want to share my story of how I am coping with depression and weaning off medication.

I was diagonised with severe depression couple of years ago. The doctor put me on Prozac and I was doing fine. But whenever I try to reduce the medication my depression comes back. Later I decided to be a part of my healing process.
 
I jog on treadmill early morning for 40 minutes and work out a sweat. Since then I have successfully reduced the dosage of medication from 20mg per day to 20 mg alternate days. Now I take 20mg every 3 days
and hoping to reduce it further and finally   get out of medication and lead a normal life like everybody else.

Thanks.
