None of these are a cure. Clinical depression is a real thing and you should see a mental health professional. But here’s my list.
Go outside and get some sun
Exercise
Drink water
Get enough sleep
Eat healthier
Form meaningful social connections
Reduce screen time
Only use your bedroom for sleeping(and sex), use different spaces for different activities
Journal
Write down 3 things that need to get done today, and then do it
(bonus edit) Meditate for 10 minutes
Most importantly. You don’t have to do all of it. Life is a marathon, not a sprint. If all you can manage today is drinking a glass of water, then start there. This random Internet stranger believes in you.
+1 zillion on sleep!!! It’s so under rated while it solves so much. Physical and mental. I could never repay my coach who tought me relaxing is an important part of training. 40+ years later i can still get to sleep in minutes. Often even seconds. Invaluable.
