When I'm really depressed, I make attempts to do small stuff. I congratulate myself for doing those small things. My family is also aware and will do things to help. Sometimes I just give up and stay in bed or on the couch all day. I usually have a laptop, or tablet, or book. I just try to keep my mind occupied.

I also talk to my therapist and/or get my meds readjusted with my pdoc.
