I've been there. For me it wasn't laziness. I truly wanted to do things but felt so awful I couldn't. I just started new medicine that is helping a lot. Are you on medicine? Would you like to try a different medicine? I'm not saying its the be all end all, I'm in therapy too, but for me the medicine made it possible for me to do all the other things that we said help like music, exercise, and cleaning. And those things seemed to help me that much more. This is the first time I've felt truly happy, without underlying anxiety or depression. If medicine is a no go, and your video game is what you miss, start there. Most times if I could get myself up to do one thing it gave me the motivation to keep doing things. If I got up and went for a walk afterward I could clean or do yoga. "make" yourself play your video game for a bit and you might feel better enough to do a variety of things.
