Wash your hair?
Shave your legs?
I shower every day (except on weekends). I brush my teeth once a day. I only wash my hair once a week if I can get away with it because drying my hair takes too much energy. I shave every day but only because I have to wear skirts at work. My work place is super conservative so I wear skirt suits every day.
Maybe this seems like a silly set of questions, but I feel like self care is so hard for those of us with depression, would be nice to know I'm not alone in struggling to do these basic things.

Hi Seesaw,
I am in a worse condition than you. I am not working. I try to take shower once every day though I find it difficult and at times cant manage, brush once every day(though I know that I should be doing it twice),wash my hair max once every wk even though it gets oily, and I have not shaved my legs for a long time.
