If the inverse is true, not exercising causing or exasperating it. I went from a very physical active job to a sedentary one during that period I became "depressed".
I have been more or less depressed since I was a child.
I always led a pretty sedentary life.
In my late 30s, I started walking a lot, hitting my 10k nearly every day. I am in my late 40's now and my depression is quite manageable. I am consistently in a much better mood than I was in my earlier years. I have also lost quite a bit of weight (went from 250-270 to 200-210) and my lower back pain is nearly gone too.
