Struggling with depression ... it is a journey. And unless miracles, it’s going to take awhile.
Everyone is going to take some steps forward and some steps back. It is completely normal so try to not beat yourself up about it. It’s going to happen, it’s going to be okay, and it does get better.
Having a structure like a solid daily/weekly/monthly program is a huge help. It gives you something to grasp onto and you slide into and out of depression.
Compassion is one of the most important parts of discipline. Everyone slips.
Another very important step is to protect your sleep.
Going to bed at the same time every night.
Waking up at the same time every day.
Getting up when your alarm starts, there is no other option, just do it, get up
Discipline is not determined by how many times you slip, but by how many times you get back up and keep going. That's how you build discipline.
Lastly, you need to build up your self-esteem. It will naturally improve by persevering and succeeding.
Recognize small victories
