How to Stop Being Depressed (and Start Being Awesome)

How to Stop Being Depressed and Start Being Awesome

How to stop being depressed is one of the primary purposes of the Hashi Mashi Diet + Training (HMDT) program.

If you or a family member are struggling with negative thoughts or the symptoms of depression, I think you would agree that it is worth exploring any other strategies that can help you feel good.

I believe that there are other ways beyond pharmaceutical medications and support groups.

For example, the remarkable benefits of 

  • deadlifts, 
  • squats, 
  • pushups, 
  • eating real food, and 
  • walking will help you look and feel better, with or without antidepressants, which is why they are the main components of HMDT to treat depression and even obesity.

As a result, a welcome side effect of Hashi Mashi Diet + Training is a fitter body, mind, and spirit.

Beyond weight loss and body transformation

I could indeed suggest Hashi Mashi as a plan for weight loss or to get fit.

I could easily avoid the topic of depression and how to stop being depressed. Why would I want to?

Because frankly, admitting that one of the purposes of HashiMashi.com is to help people learn how to stop being depressed without medication can be embarrassing. Depression is not a condition that most people want to admit to experiencing, men or women.

While it is true that Hashi Mashi is about how to stop being depressed and overweight, but more importantly, it is about becoming a stronger person than you ever thought possible, in body and mind.

Initially, it is accurate that the only goal I had in mind was weight loss.

Ultimately though, I discovered that every day that I made improvements physically was another day that I felt like I wanted to start living and being productive again.

See for yourself

So, if you struggle with overweight or obesity, experience for yourself the miracle of how real food and simple exercise can transform your body. 

Suffice it to say that I wish I knew this information twenty years ago; I might have lived a very different life.

But now that I have experienced first hand the power of real food and exercise, I must let you know, because even if you are thin but depressed, that is not much of a life to look forward to, because depression is the vampire that sucks the life out of you and anyone who knows you.

Therefore, beyond just focusing on the benefits of deadlifts, squats, pushups, real food and walking to transform your physique, I am adjusting the purpose to be what it was, is and will be for me and I hope others as well;

A guide on how to stop being depressed and start living a better life with or without medications.
