I did find a very interesting article regarding testing, depression and TBI. It makes sense to me the way it is worded. As Mark said, it doesn't mean your daughter may not have depression but there is more to testing than that.

Putting all the symptoms down to depression and adjustment disorder though seems way off track to me. You know your daughter best. What a pain these tests can be. You hope for answers that will lead to positive steps for recovery, but it just gets all confused.

Anyway, here's the article. Same author has been quoted in the text as Mark posted about above. I just liked the way the article has been explained so thought I would post.

It's written by an attorney and there are 2 pages.

DEPRESSION MAKES OTHER TBI PROBLEMS WORSE
The Defense Abuses Depression
The Defense will argue that Organic Brain Injury Doesn’t Get Worse, it Gets Better. We sill argue that Depression makes other TBI problems worse.
