Hi! I know this is an older thread but I have a weird tip that's helped me through my worst depressive episodes that may help you with the things you struggle to do. I make a chart with a few things on it like, eat three times (each one seperate), take a walk outside, read for 10 minutes, wash my face, brush my teeth, and label them on the top for the days of the week. Depending on how bad I am, they'll have more or less things to do, and I customize it by how I feel at the beginning of the week. Every time I do something on the list, I give myself a colorful star! I even got stickers for it at one point, like in kindergarten! I didn't want to do the things, but I wanted a star, so I would do them! and an extra star at the end of the week if I did them all every day. Some weeks it would only be three things to do, other weeks I was able to list about 5-10! I hope you're feeling a bit better now
