In a recent medical study published in the British Medical Journal says there is no direct link with exercise and positive effect on depression (http://tinyurl.com/6rtjk6j).
From personal experience, I wouldn't agree. I know that if I've not been to the gym for a while I can have some very black days. I used to forego the gym because of a ill founded sense of duty, to work or family. Over these periods, my view of the world would suffered badly.
However, since I became self employed I have made sure to make time for the gym. This had benefited me in two ways. One is I've not suffered the dark shadow of depression, and my body has responded well.
So I would say if you do suffer from depression, maybe exercise could give you the same freedom it has offered me.
