>>261542>just asking if anyone here ever did get better or feel better (at least for awhile) with the help of improvements from better living conditions, better health (better eating,sleeping,exercising etc…) and so on? Yes. Improving your physical health improves mental health (keyword=improves, not to be confused with "cures"), it has nothing to do with self-improvement normie stuff or looking better.
Being overweight or underweight, having a poor diet, oversleeping or not sleeping, and being sedentary affects your body and mind heavily. If you're mentally ill, your brain is not only dealing with mental illness, but with the bad effects of having bad physical health (they feed each other, break the cycle). If you're physically normal, it's easier for the brain to just deal with mental illness.
It's hard at first. Once you get a single healthy habit as part of your daily routine, other good healthy habits will follow fast and easier. I go to the gym alone, I go running alone, I throw my football alone, I meditate while I do these, they're part of my routine and I enjoy them most of the time. Even if I don't enjoy them, I do them, it's about discipline, consistence and stability.
My mental health is easier to handle and I'm severely mentally ill. I've gone to the point I'm completely independent, I buy my own meds, I go to therapy, I cook my meals, I groom myself because it's fun for me, I dress up everyday for wagecuck, the list goes on.
