you're either lifestyle or you're either the regular path of medications and therapy, where the reality is the benefit lies best with everything that you can do that the patient's wanting to do that works for them. So looking at it, not at these separate camps, but that these are all first-line interventions that can go together, I think is a better way of framing it for patients.

Because an example there would be, say the patient comes in, they want to start an antidepressant medication, and that's something that I would fully support. But at the same time, that doesn't now block off the area of also having exercises intervention at the same time, starting at the same time, or maybe even a staggered approach.

And I think being comfortable discussing these interventions at the same time is important to receive proper care as well, because there's not a whole lot of data. But when someone is on an antidepressant, oftentimes, even when that depressive episode resolves, you remain on it for varying amounts of time, depending on the number of episodes that you've had before.

But it would be interesting to see for those that adopt a lifestyle change, such as exercise or diet, perhaps you need to stay on that medication for less. And I don't have the data to support what that interval looks like. However, it would be interesting to see if we can see changes in how these interventions may interact with one another.

Because right now, even in the research space, we often see them in isolation. which goes back to your main point where it's hard for the provider to make a decision of what to do best if these interventions aren't often used together in the research world, now applying it to the clinical setting or the patient in front of you.

Yeah, for medication side effects, specifically within psychiatry when we're looking at the treatment of depression, It's easy to look at these two broad classes of medications that we use. So there's obviously the antidepressant medications, and these can have side effects that we turn to be metabolic side effects. And by that, I mean they can be associated with things like weight gain.

They can be associated with changes in your heart rate. They can change your blood pressure sometimes. And we know that exercise can counteract a lot of these side effects. And another thing that people don't know is sometimes for people that are on one antidepressant and you see a partial response, sometimes you get your treatment augmented with another medication.
