I know what you mean about the depression. I didn't want to do anything at all. even doing laundry seemed like too much. Chewing felt like too much work! ( it sounds funny but it's true. I drank Ensures and ate frozen yogurt for months, because I couldn't be bothered to eat).

A vision board is fun because it's (sort of) a crafty activity. You cut out photos, words, visions, images, etc. from magazines of things you love (or used to love before the depression really hit) and your life as you want it to be, and glue everything to a poster board or foam core. And then, post it somewhere (i posted mine by the WC. HAVE to go there even when exhausted).

For instance, I used lots of old magazines and had pix of flowers, positive words that represented goals ("career", "job", "success"), clothing and shoes/bags that I liked, fav restaurants, people I admire, etc.

It helped keep a teeny piece of hope alive for me. No matter how depressed.
