I was in a car accident a week and half ago (rear-ended- I was stopped and they were going about 45). Physically I am treating a sore neck and back (via chiropractic and massage therapy), but my question regards how tired I am. I have had severe depression for most of my life, so I deal with fatigue from that, but after the accident I feel the need to sleep all the time, find it too effortful to explain things, and generally just feel emotionally/mentally/physically exhausted. What should I do?
