Is exercise with ADT the Secret Sauce?

Posted by chippydoo @chippydoo, Mar 17 9:07am

Over 2 months in on Lupron and have found exercise seems to be the secret sauce that makes me feel normal. I have mountain biked for 35 years and recently invested in an E-bike. Seems to be the gift that keeps on giving. The E-bike is much easier to target aerobic zones, can push through mild headaches and feel great hours after an 1-1.5-hour ride in the forest. It also knocks down any depression and I sleep uninterrupted all night long. The hardest part is pushing out of the easy chair to get going. "Just do it" is my mantra. Has anyone else experienced the benefit of exercise while on ADT?

It’s great to hear ketamine is so effective. I know some people get like six sessions at first. And then some of them repeat it, though the frequency varies.

How much treatment was it necessary for you to get out from under the depression?

Other people come on here with depression as well, They would be interested in hearing more.

Eight so far. Another one scheduled in a month.
Depression cleared after two or three sessions. Anxiety took a little longer.
Miracle treatment.
