In my past struggles, the right medications, forcing myself to exercise, and giving myself goals like maintaining/reaching a healthy weight or working on my writing all helped. I used to try to look for small "easy wins" that I could use to make myself feel a little better.

Did the dishes? Win. Went for a jog today? Win. Got dressed and left the house? Win. Shaved and showered? Win. Little achievable things like that so I could tell myself that at least I'd accomplished something for the day.
