I've mentioned before that I do a bunch of little things to get me out of bed during my depressive stages - I form habits and routines I can't break, I write little notes of encouragement, etc. But one thing I'm still having a lot of trouble with is motivating myself to sit down at my study desk and actually study, during my depressive episodes. I'm fine during my manic episodes; I'm so giddy and happy that I don't mind studying because I know it's for my best. When I'm depressed, though, I always think, "What's the point of it all? I'm gonna fail anyway." And I just end up sleeping or doing whatever after being productive for half the day.
