(Seriouse) what are the best ways to find motivation to do things, while dealing with depression? - eviltoast

Ive had a hard life that i dont really want to talk about especcialy online, so ive be feel depressed an unmotivated for a bit now. i heard exercising helps but is that true where do you even get motivation to start working out? i do bascily the same things everyday and i just want to do more in my life because its getting bland-er… also if you want to share a short life story go ahead, i feel im more in the idea department/creative department but yet i do nothing and my head i cloaded with life. i feel like i should put more here but ill just leave it here.

    Anything worth doing is worth doing badly…

    If you want to go for a run, or go to the gym, but can’t find the spoons to do so, then do it badly instead of not doing at all. Maybe do some laps around your lounge or walk out to your front yard and back again, and call that good enough.

    Haven’t showered and feel like you should, but just can’t? Rather than skipping it completely, do it badly. Wash your face and brush your teeth instead, and call that good enough.
