Always tired


Quote  |  Reply

I sleep way to much! I wasn't feeling particulary depressed when this started happening (lin september) but it's like the more I sleep the worse I feel. I went to my Dr cause she thought it might be my thyroid thats out of whack but that test came back great. So do you think it's the depression? I take meds, same ones I've taken for almost 3 years. Dr did just up one of them and I was feeling a bit better, not so much anxiety anymore. I think maybe I should go look for another job (only working sat and sun nights right now) I've been spending to much time at home without getting any real exercise. I'm sure that would probably help me. Im also wondering if maybe I got some better quality sleep then I wouldnt feel so tired all of the time. My daughter is 10 and sleeps in my room. Yes, I made the mistake of having her in bed with us when she was little just for convienence while I was breastfeeding and here we are 9 years later and I can't get the child to sleep in her room.

So sorry that I went on and on...maybe I just needed to vent.

I think we are twins!! I nap ALOT. 10 year old son JUST went into own room last week. Home to much alone. I have found ALOT of things that help. ALL of them are vit. supplements and herbal tonics. this is my best fall in 10 years!!

 

I too have been fighting the fatigue battle for what seems like forever.... my kids will get off to school and I just want to crawl back into bed for the rest of the day until pick up time (honestly some days I do). We just changed my meds which has helped a ton and I find that just getting my engine going really helps... I literally force myself to exercise! I make a commitment to a friend to walk once a week, I work in the kids classroom 3 times a week knowing this will get me out of the house. The other times are still a huge uphill fight though. Might have something to do with the day to day yuck of housework too, that is just physically draining!  Good luck on your end, let us know if you find the anwser, ....OH and fyi, our  9 year twin boys and our 6 year old daughter all still crawl in our bed whenever they get the chance! (they were all breastfed little nuts, not sure if there's a connection there or not....)
