The apathy that accompanies depression. Most days, I can't complete simple chores let alone the important duties required of an adult with a house and family.

My dude, I have been here. I set my "baseline self care" to try and combat some of this.

1. eat enough 2. sleep enough (you're depressed, you need more sleep than normal) 3. read the Bible

That last one is for christian folks. My faith and dependence on God has been the thing that has allowed me to pull through. Self-care comes in close second.
