First, Writing things so you know them seems valuable.
Second, Fwiw In my struggles with depression, I’ve found physical habits to be the easiest route to something better. When you don’t know what to do but need to do something, go for a walk/hike/jog and let your brain sync up with your body a little, burn some calories to regain some hunger, and deserve some the tiredness you may already feel.
Good point! In those states of mind it is just as hard to make the choice to do some physical thing as to make any other choice, but perhaps I could try to hold in mind the intention to always do some exercise on the upswing, when I am getting back into the gear of action. Ideally I could even learn to do it on the downswing, before I’m so deep in the apathy valley as to be unable to make the choice.
