Unable to manage daily routine

Stress

I dont know where to start, this is my very first time to open this up except to my boyfriend. I've been experiencing depression and anxiety for about 5 months now. It feels like I dont remember how to start my day, especially when I'm on day off. I just want to lay in bed, scrolling on social media but it make it worse. I tried to take some action like exercise for 30 mins every morning but ended up overwhelming. I dont know where to start again :(

What is it that’s making you depressed, at times you need to target the problem to have better adaptability in life.

I had the same problem. What I realized is that you need a daily purpose in life. For example; every day you will learn to play the guitar or practice painting. For me it was writing. Then, at the end of the day when you accomplish your task you will see an immendiate resault of your work and you will feel worthy and like you are actually doing something. It does not have to be a big thing. Just find something. Trust me you have talent, explore it :)
