Would you recommend the same to fix a person's a broken leg or eyesight problem?

Already said "I know some can't do sports." Also didn't say anything about fixing physical health issues.

My point is not ability to do the sport, is that you're taking mental diseases as different from "physical".

The brain is harder for us to understand than a femur, but that doesnt warrant dismissing its malfunctions. Exercise, good sleep and similar stuff is healthy for everyone, but suggesting healing OCD with that is just as ascientifical as suggesting to tough it out for a broken bone.

Sports activity affect the brain physically, and in my opinion, can help fix mental disorders. Not all disorders, I'm no neurologist, but in my non-scientific experience, sports really help mental illnesses.

For example, if you have depression, doing sports most certainly help you get out of depression. If your body image makes you depressed somewhat, sports fix that. (Put aside cases where people have a burned face or some other irregular case.)

For OCDs, you may get your obsessive thoughts/actions to be replaced by sports activity. You exert energy, you work and it helps.

Either you don't do sports either or you are living proof that sports don't fix all mental disorders.

The CTE scandal that rocked high-contact sports like boxing and American football suggests that sports can cause mental disorders.

That said, physical activity, when carefully engaged in, is a great clearing agent for brain fog. Get to the gym, or go for a hike, jog, swim, or bike ride, if nothing else.

How did it get personal? You can't understand my take so you lash out. Well, I don't really care so... Good luck?

They probably understand it just fine, but are tired of hearing it from _so_ _many_ _different_ _people_. It's practically a cliche for someone to bring it up every time mental illness is discussed and it's utterly hollow advice for the vast majority of people. Given the general size of the effect exercise has on mental illness, it's far more the bandaid fix than any other suggestion (exercise will help basically anyone feel a little bit better. It's extremely rare for it to rise to the level of treatment, let alone a cure).

“I feel like many stomach ulcers would be fixed by just doing maths olympiads.”

See how that sounds?

That's not a mental illness.
