None of these are a cure. Clinical depression is a real thing and you should see a mental health professional. But here's my list.

  • Go outside and get some sun
  • Exercise
  • Drink water
  • Get enough sleep
  • Eat healthier
  • Form meaningful social connections
  • Reduce screen time
  • Only use your bedroom for sleeping(and sex), use different spaces for different activities
  • Journal
  • Write down 3 things that need to get done today, and then do it
  • (bonus edit) Meditate for 10 minutes

Most importantly. You don't have to do all of it. Life is a marathon, not a sprint. If all you can manage today is drinking a glass of water, then start there. This random Internet stranger believes in you.

Also drugs.

+1 zillion on sleep!!! It's so under rated while it solves so much. Physical and mental. I could never repay my coach who tought me relaxing is an important part of training. 40+ years later i can still get to sleep in minutes. Often even seconds. Invaluable.
