i DO agree with HanSolo on the getting out of bed and not pushing yourself bit, but i still stick with my concern about the cycling.
i think if you've got "just depression" (which is devastating, believe me i know! i'm not trivializing it by calling it "just depression" i just mean not anything PLUS the depression)... anyway, if you've got "just depression" it's so hard to get out of bed or off the couch. i really really recommend a little walk. if you don't think you're up to that, just try to go sit outside for a little while. work your way up to a walk. i know, i know, when i am depressed it's the last thing i want to do, in fact i never think i'm even capable of doing it! but it helps, it really does. and every time i come out of a depression i think "why didn't i take walks earlier!?" really, it helps to accomplish even the slightest goal. just go to the end of the block and back. you may sleep for hours after, but you've earned it! then do it again tomorrow. and the next day...
i really hope you're feeling better soon!
