Mornings are always a challenge for me, as I'm sure they are for many. Before, I had things like school and work that forced me out of bed. And as depressed as I might be those first few hours I always end up perking up at least a little bit somewhere throughout the day, or at least I'm just distracted enough. But now with the virus shutting everything down I've definitely had troubles getting out of bed. It's gotten worse, I watch more hours go by everyday while I'm laying in bed. A lot of times I'm not even sleeping, I'll wake up like 9-10 am but just lay there for hours trying to fall back asleep because at least when I'm asleep I'm not sad.
Like I said, I usually perk up after being up for some amount of time but I literally have not been able to bring myself to even try. Or sometimes I do, and regret it and end up right back in bed. Does anyone have any good advice for this? Getting myself up out of bed and staying up. It's my biggest challenge these days and I'm really trying to take this time to improve myself but I'm still just sad, and struggling with even the smallest of tasks.
