Break everything into the smallest thing possible. When I was and am on my depression bouts, I try to break my life into the most tiny tasks/goals ever. Like: go out of bed, 1 task - 1 point. (and had to have at least 10 points on the first day, 15 on the second, and so on). also, doing a checklist also helps me.

By allowing yourself to stay in it. If you view it as a problem, youre only torturing yourself. Examine the why behind your desire to stay in your bed and deal with that first. Don't overwhelm yourself with thinking you need to get out of it when clearly you want to stay in it. You have the right to as a human being.

The other day i read a post about a girl who puts cheese on her nighstand just because evey morning this cheese gives her reason to get out of bed. I think you should find something that you love and make it the reason you stand up every morning

Think about the most important thing you need to do today and to yourself "i needs to be done now and i can do it ." Indulging yourself in yoga or some kinda exercise might also motivate you cause it will help to make a habit and you get used to it . Speaking of which it also keeps you healthy. And having a sound sleep is also important . Cause if you're sleepy you would never want to get out of bed .

Think about everything positive you have going on throughout the day , it dosent even have to be the big things that happen every once and awhile it can be the tiny things like just seeing someone that makes you smile everyday.

Well, try to think of all the fun things you get to do, like talk to your friends, listen to music, or even watch your favourite show!

just tell your pillow that you need to get up early in the morning sleeping is not a waste of time though you do not want to miss the moments that may arrive at any instance in life

Give yourself a reason to get out of bed everyday. Make plans for that morning. Like meet someone for breakfast or coffee or go work out. Make a plan that requires you to act on it because someone else is depending on you besides yourself.

focus on the beautiful parts of the day, and ignore the bad ones. Even if the good things are only your morning coffee or pancakes, a TV Show, your new shirt you'll wear today or something else you like.

Move your alarm to the other side of the room, so that way, when you get up in the morning, you have to get out of bed to turn it off. :]
