Default PCS Fatigue vs. Depression
We are just about 6 months post concussion. The major issue we are still battling is fatigue. How can I tell if my daughter's fatigue is PCS related fatigue vs. the fatigue that would accompany depression? The majority of the time, I don't think she is depressed - but then she'll make occasional comments that make me stop and wonder if she is struggling with depression too. I know that she is really bummed about not being able to ride her horse and attend a series of events she wanted to this summer. She's also frustrated that she's not better yet.

Any suggestions on how to battle the fatigue regardless of the cause?
