People that say they don't understand what depression is are telling the truth in my experience. My bf has no clue.
I want to help, not sure if I can. For me, going to bed at the same time and getting up at the same time every day is what works. I'm now in the habit for about 2 months. This morning my alarm didn't go off but i have an internal clock i guess.

Making sure your room is dark and cool, staying away from artificial light for at least an hour before bed (i don't even watch tv) has helped me. It's rhythm that our body needs. Keep the bedroom strictly for sleep. Not naps. If you can't sleep then read a book with low light but no screens of tv or computer.

Lavender oils make some people sleepy. Can you afford or go to a pool or massage therapist once in a while? Can you get a dog where you live now so it has to be taken for a walk?

We all need something we look forward to getting up for. Myself, I'm addicted to coffee. (And unfortunately cigarettes, which also feed my desire to get up.)

My alarm is set to radio and that helps as long as it isn't the news when I wake.
