Yay! I was really glad to find something on that topic by and for depressed people, who have a very different perspective than what the usual advice covers.
I really want to get Nebuly introduced to Ansel. One of the later scenes I have of the two them is Ansel talking Nebuly out of bed in the morning with very practical arguments: get up, visit the bathroom, eat breakfast, and if you still feel like crap then go back to bed. Because if you don't get up, your body's needs will just get worse, making you feel even more like crap. Sometimes, moving around will generate a little energy and you can do more stuff. If not, you can lie back down and at least the physical essentials are out of the way for a few hours.
