As a fellow sufferer of ED, if nobody has taught you the 5-second-countdown trick, here it is: a lot of people who have trouble with executive dysfunction have trouble with the part of the brain responsible for doing tasks in the correct order. We don't know where to begin, so we just ... don't. If you make an end run around that part of the brain by deliberately using a part of the brain for doing tasks out of order, like counting backwards, then some folks can do the thing. So next time you need to get out of bed or off social media or whatever, give yourself a five second countdown and when you get to zero, do the thing.
It works for me unless I am super depressed and more sections of my brain are broken than just the one, but every little bit helps when you are fighting the zombie menace inside your own mind. Good luck, comrade!
the kind of ED that isn't having an alligator in your pants
