Have a couple friends with depression. One of them listened to motivational speaker on being a success. The main take away, "Accomplish one thing every day". After my husband died, things were rough at first, that advice has been very helpful. No matter what, I have an alarm set, I get up and make my bed. (Even if you get back in bed and cover up and don't come out, you accomplished something that day.) The next day, do the same, but maybe drag a blanket with you and veg in front of the TV. But, get up and make your bed. I have days I've sat around in my jammies all day, but, I got up and made my bed. I am disabled, if nothing planned, it would be very easy to be unproductive. But every day I can say, "I got up and made my bed". I know clinical depression doesn't compare. But, accomplishing one thing every day, is a great mood booster.
