Physical and Mental Health

It seems a long time since I last posted. I have had a bad cold which resulted in a chest infection. There seems to be a lot of colds and flu like symptoms around the university at the moment. It started me thinking about the affect our physical health has on our mental health. Statistics say that we are more likely to experience depression if we have a long term medical condition. For me, having a cold had an effect on my motivation. The healthy campus initiative looks at healthy living to improve our physical health. It can also impact on our mental health. Changes in exercise and diet are being used by people with depression to improve their mental well being.
