When I am deeply depressed i struggle to get of the couch to even go to the bathroom ( I know, tmi). The bathroom seems miles away to me and finding the energy to move in a herculean effort. Of course I am eventually motivated enough to go but still it is a major mission.

As for positive things like excercising, eating well, cleaning and socialising I do try to keep them up but feel no benefit from them. Perhaps it is some kind of built up effect where the more we do the positive the sooner we will get out of depression. Still, i can go for the most 'amazing' snooker and feel dead inside which only ends up making me feel worse as I knew I should have enjoyed it. So, yes I can be adverse to things that could make me feel better but at the same time feel no better having done them. But I guess it is a good thing to get off the couch for a time - that has to be good for me.
