Super hot or cold shower and just force yourself to go... Sometimes you have to literally drag yourself from point A to point B kicking and screaming.
Hope your feeling better soon

This may not be possible, since it sounds like you're dealing with psychomotor retardation, but if you can manage to exercise a bit, even if it's just walking for 10 or 15 minutes, you may feel a temporary antidepressant effect.
Like Christina said, you may have to force yourself to get up and go pretend you feel good. Sorry you're not feeling well.

Roll yourself out of bed, and then kind of stumble your way to the bathroom. Only advice I have. Hope you feel better!

Hope it went well. I find I just have to force myself to do it and sometimes you can get some inertia going. Once I get to what I need to do, I'm usually able to roll with it and perform okay (maybe not great, but enough to get the job done). If you'd have talked to me before I arrived, though, my depressed brain would've said I couldn't do it.
My therapist once told me depression lies to us, and that the depressed brain wants to stay depressed, even if we're begging it otherwise. That's why it's so hard to get ourselves out of bed and get moving, but that's exactly what we need to do to fight the depression.
