Reply to comment by Zoenne in LPT if you struggle with depression or other disorders preventing ADLs, you don't have to eat a full meal or even get into the shower in order to have tiny successes. by nip_pickles

So much this. When I was at my darkest I read this quote and it actually helped so much.

Brushing your teeth for 20 seconds is better than 0 seconds. Eating a piece of toast is better than not eating anything. Being in the shower, even if not washing, is better than not showering at all.

You don’t have to do things well in order for it to be worthwhile.

Even brushing your teeth without toothpaste, in your car, and when the motivation strikes you, is better than nothing, and honestly better than most people think.
