I'd be careful to say what it can do for your mental health. I tried to make it work for me, but it always made me feel worse because it gave my mind time to ruminate on bad memories and feelings. I would've stopped doing that to myself sooner had I not heard that exercise = good feelings without caveats.
Oh, I'm definitely not saying it's a cure or anything for mental health. Just that it's amazing if it does work for you.
It definitely works for me. I go hiking regularly.
Maybe going outside but with another human to distract you could help?
