Can't even get up in the morning

Drew, that's a good question. It's really hard sometimes to separate depression from fatigue and which one might be causing which. For me, it's usually my fatigue that causes me to feel depressed because I can't physically do the things I normally enjoy. A lot of times people who have chronic fatigue end up depressed. On the other hand, people who have depression can also feel tired a lot. However, if your fatigue is something fairly new or you are not sure if it's related to your depression you should really go to your family doctor and get a complete physical with some blood tests to rule out any medical problems that might be causing your fatigue. I work in a mental health office and I know that our psychiatrist often orders labs for for people who are depressed to make sure their thyroid is okay and that their blood count is normal. They are especially careful with teenagers to make sure there is not an underlying medical problem. It's defintely worth talking to your parents to see if they can help you get a doctor's appointment set up. Take care and let me know if you have any other questions.
