Do you have any pets or plants you can play and take care of? I run about every other day with my dog.

I try to think of something small that I can look forward to in the next week. I also try to let go of the things I know that I can't change, because I might be able to change them later.

Take it a moment at a time, do what you can. If you need to do ten percent of a task at a time give yourself to do that. Then move on to another activity and do small chunks of each activity and let yourself be ok with not completely finishing each thing at one time. Maybe this is advice I needed, I don't know if it applies to you're situation.
