this is one we should all be doing. Those of us who work online are more susceptible to things like this because if we are not working from home or we are working in an office for a lot of hours and don't get enough sunshine and can easily develop bad eating/exercise habits along the way.
Vitamin D is a big one, if you aren't getting enough sun, less in winter, then you are most likely low on it and it can bring moods down. Supplements, good foods and sunshine, all 3 are important to fix any deficiency--one isn't enough. for exercise train for something. join a boxing club, swimming club or some martial arts training--shit, even yoga. All these types of things aren't just good exercise, they are good motivators and will help with any anxieties.
