"I will give you a little known secret about "speeding up" response to antidepressants. After you start taking your antidepressant, on the third or fourth day of beginning the drug, make yourself go work out everyday. Do something aerobic, as intensely as you can stand it for 20-30 minutes a day. I GUARANTEE you will begin feeling the effect from the AD faster if you do this. I dont know why Pdocs dont tell their patients about the relationship between aerobic exercise and antidepressant effectiveness. I suppose they dont know enough about it to inform their patients".
