If you've never had major depression then this take might make sense. Honestly if you don't struggle with depression I'll kindly ask you to fuck off because you have no idea. When you spend a whole day thinking about how you need to clean the litter box and eat, which will take 30 minutes or less, but it takes you 14 hours to motivate yourself to do those things, then you might understand.
They're asking for things they can do, so I'm assuming they're able to do things. So if they have the ability to do something, they have the ability to go and get help. It's not a motivation issue.
My issue is they're asking a question they know the answer to, but they want a different answer. And it's not the first time they've done that.
