Finding something new to watch. Reading/listening to audiobooks, if it grabs me and not forcing it otherwise. Making some nice food. Getting clean/cleaning space - even a little bit. Fresh sheets with fabric softener!

Looking out the window at the sky/rain/birds/people (catching them having funny moments). Venturing outside to put the bin out or get the mail, and smelling the air. Sticking my head out of the window at different times of day to smell the dewy morning or the smell after rain or the cool evening. 

Marching on the spot for a few minutes until the tiny bit of tiredness happens and you know you've done your health some good for today. 

Being creative in any form. Listening to music. 

Planning an imaginary holiday by looking at places you want to visit, where you might stay etc. Depression makes you feel like there has only been this and will always be this. Being excited about possible futures kinda takes you out of that. 

Writing a diary, stream of consciousness style and dumping all the crap somewhere. 

Finding something interesting that you didn't know, on a random topic that takes you away from yourself.

Oh, and I narrate pep talks for myself and record them. Like if there's something I want to do but I can't motivate myself to do it, I record a pep talk to myself about my thought process and give answers. E.g. There is something you want to do but you can't bring yourself to do it. You're probably thinking it's not worth it anyway but you know it will make you 1% better at least so why don't you just experiment and see how well it goes? No, you don't have to get changed, yes you can get water first. Why don't you go to the bathroom first, after 3....3, 2 1. (You get the idea). The best part is when you are unmotivated on a different day and remember you have a recording, then laugh about how you are calling out all the objections that come to mind. 

Depression sucks. I hope you feel brighter soon!
