Always ask the question about sleep, diet and movement when considering our mental health. Certainly not applicable for everyone but very often these changes can have remarkable results

@SebastianGeukes @cmueller_PhD Yes - what was presented here was correlation. Since that study, more has been done, including RCTs (https://t.co/1GbLI8WLww). Obviously there is more to be done in the area, and lifestyle changes can be tricky to demonstrate causality, but the type of evidence is improving!
