There is really no intervention that would help me right now unless it is a physical improvement.
But you might be different.

Abstract: Study examined the effectiveness of
interventions for psychological issues faced by individuals post stroke
when initiated in the chronic stage of stroke. MEDLINE, CINAHL, EMBASE,
and Scopus databases were searched for relevant randomized controlled
trials (RCTs). Similar interventions were grouped and results
summarized. Data on the study design, participant characteristics,
interventions, outcomes, and adverse events were extracted from each of
the selected studies. Nine RCTs met the inclusion criteria. All 9
studies examined effectiveness on mood and 3 on adjustment. Repetitive
transcranial magnetic stimulation had the strongest evidence of
effectiveness in improving mood followed by pharmacotherapy. Exercise
appeared to be effective in improving adjustment and coping among
individuals in the chronic stage of stroke. Overall, interventions
provided in the chronic stage of stroke appear to be effective in
improving mood and adjustment up to 3 months after intervention. The use
of multidisciplinary interventions and acceptance models may be
important in the overall adjustment process.
