The Psychopharmacology of Energy and Fatigue
J Clin Psychiatry 2002;63(1):7-8

On the other hand, another subgroup of depressed patients has been largely neglected, namely those with fatigue, lack of energy, and lack of motivation. One possible reason for this neglect is that such complaints may be interpreted as symptoms of a somatic illness and lead to exhaustive searches for medical illness rather than to treatment as depression.
