Longevists may face some unique challenges

• food cravings/temptations without the ability to indulge
• food restrictions
• stress related to health maintenance
• less social activities tied to eating
• artificial poverty
• awareness and compassion of the suffering of others

Some tips for avoiding depression / mood elevation

• exercise in the outdoors (bike / hike in a park in the morning)
• pick fresh foods that you love eating every day
• find a helpful way that calorie restriction and longevity can be rewarding (see motivation)
• serve others instead of self
• don't have non family working directly for you, for your profit outside of basic necessities
• always have something to do on the todo list
• don't become so wealthy that the need to survive is diminished (understand why some movie stars and Elvis died young)
