If people get depressed and become more sedate they tend to eat more, the stomach produces more acid because of anxiety and because the stomach is connected to the brain by a nerve. The more they eat the more weight they put on and the more their self image suffers and so more they might feel depressed, and so the more they eat.
The best cure for depression is exercise, and understanding of human love and compassion to keep you going and see a better way out supported.by good friends and family.
Understanding depression is the key for the sufferer.
