Self-help: Sensory stimulus

Sensory stimulus

Exercise benefits your body, sensory stimuli benefit your mind. There are many ways in which you can stimulate your senses; going for a walk in the country, watching a film, listening to music, eating nice food, and so on. Whatever you used to find pleasurable before you became depressed, whether it's ballet or pornography, try it now. It'll help, even if you don't immediately realise it.
