The first step is to take care of your body. Exercise, sleep 8 hours, eat healthy.

Next step is to start taking care of your mind. Not as straightforward as the first step, with quite a bit more nuance.

Lastly, something that helped me is to find the difference, in your life, between motivation and discipline.

fuck off. I did all of that shit at times when I was depressed and guess what, I just wanted to die even more because eating healthy is so much work

Whoa! You're coming in hot there, buddy. But there is no situation where step 1 doesn't help in some fashion. My guess is step 2, the infinitely more difficult step is where you struggle. Good luck, I guess...
