How can I get motivated for Thanksgiving, /ck/. I'm going through a bout of depression, and I have family coming tomorrow, and I'm supposed to be cooking the entire Thanksgiving meal, and I've only done half the shopping, and less than half the housework needed, and I can't seem to get up and do it. I've been sleeping all day, and feel like I have brain fog. My family has never understood my depression and anxiety issues (one feeds the other) and they pretend it doesn't exist, so it's not like I can ask for their help. I know this isn't /adv/, it's /ck/, but ya'll are my home board, and I need help getting up and motivated to clean and cook this giant fucking meal. I don't even want to go to the store.....
Tell me something happy that will make me want to get this done.

This a cooking board. We arent therapists. Fuck off and cook something.

Get up early tomorrow, make some coffee, put on some good music and half-ass clean the house, then go to the store. Go back home, cue up the music and get slightly drunk while you cook. Shit's fun by yourself!

Get hammered on alcohol of choice. Cures depression instantly and will motivate you to do a bang up job.

Yeah......already drank 2 bottles of wine. Luckily, I can walk to a really good grocery store from here.

This sounds like a pretty decent plan. Holidays kind of suck when you have the anxiety/depression combo, but I'm sure other people know exactly what I mean. I just wish everything wasn't on my shoulders. My family kind of sucks (but let's not get into that).

Ha, that made me smile.

Already have some in the fridge, but I need to pick up some brandy or whiskey to spike it.

Why be so mean to one of your own who's having problems? I care about all of you, I've been here for everyone for years and years. I just needed a friendly boost.
Thanks to everyone for replies, and I'll happily take more suggestions. I did manage to get in the shower and clean myself up, so I can go to the store. Anyone else have a hard time looking in the mirror when you're depressed? That's a weird phenomenon, it's like I'm looking at a ghost.
