Okay so I’m 16
Yeah young, what my parents say is that I shouldn’t be this tired
I’m just wondering if its normal
I’m in high school, sleep isn’t prominent in my life but I think I get enough. I sleep 6 hours on average and then go to school, sometimes sports for a couple of hours, I’d say some changes in life have increased the amount of stress I have lately. But I now get home and the only thing I manage to do is sleep. I’ll eventually wake up after a couple of hours of on and off sleep and do homework. I also don’t eat well, perhaps this is the problem but I don’t know… This has been effecting my grades lately so I’m taking it as a problem, any tips or anything?

Perhaps subconscious depression, with not working for so long and your way of life being interupted with low funds. Need to reactivate yourself. I’m tired 24/7. I am out of work and can’t get the energy to do anything anymore.

I am 63 years old. I have been unemployed for 4 years. Very difficult securing employment. Now, I have obtained a job and start on Monday. You would think I would be enthusiastic and full of energy. Unfortunately, I am not. Around 2P I get very tired. My energy level is next to zero. I force myself to make the bed and tidy up my house. Everything seems to be an effort for me. I hope I can function working 40 hours a week, at a 9 to 5 job. I need the money. I am in good health. I take 88 mcg of levothryroxine for low thyroid. Normal/low blood pressure. Not overwieight and in realatively good health. Whats up??

Goodness, I am suffering from severve tireness so badly at the moment I havent been able to read all the info on here and can barely focus on what i’m typing!. Benn through an extremely stressfl couple of weeks following death of husbands mother. Since funeral i’ve just wanted to sleep pretty much constantly. Today for instance I have just stayed in but kept dosing off for periods of 20 mins or so.. forced myself to wake only to dose back again.. this cycle has repeatd all day. I sleep as soon as my head hits pillow and reluctantly wake to alarm clock. My eyes are stinging and heavy and keep misting over. I just want to sleep.. what’s going on?

I am a 22 year old. I work 2 jobs and go to school full time. I try and get sleep during the week. I also work 7 days a week and am always tired at 7 in the morning when I get up for work. I get a giant burst of energy after I get outa work which makes it less likely that I will fall asleep by 10. Am I tired because there is something physically wrong? Or is it my life style?

Carpal tunnel disease, I am sure I spelled it wrong, can cause the numbness in the arms and because it is in both it is highly likely. It makes whatever part of the body it is in be asleep for a few hours after awaking and gives a numbness feeling. I highly suggest seeing a nerve doctor and general doctor describing to both of them the situation and do not forget to mention the medication your on.

I am 20 years old, I generally sleep about 6-12 hours a day, I have been depressed, as being bipolar doesn’t exactly help. I will sleep about 6 hours and feel great! the only problem with that is I don’t know when to sleep because I have so much energy, and my body doesn’t naturally know when to sleep because growing up I’ve always taken sleeping pills, and now I don’t, I have been taking iron pills, which seem to help a bit, but I still feel tired, and feel like not doing anything, could my issue be caused by stress, or being I’m bipolar? should I take natural vitamins, and continue my daily iron pills? I also wake up with numb arms, I sometimes have to move them for 2 or so hours, the nerves seem to be completely shot, as I can’t even move my right arm, I know that’s not normal, and I can’t gain weight, although there isn’t much to eat anyway, what are my suggestions?

I am a 57 year old lady who has a lot of medical problems. Generally i dont sleep very much as i get terrible nightmares since childhood. But recently i have been so tired, I go to bed at 10pm earlier sometimes then i wake at 6am but feel so grogy as if i have not slept at all. then during the day i just want to sleep, i feel so drained. I have great difficulty in breathing as i have COPD, so i cant take my dogs out to far. also i have now got terrible pain down my left arm very painful when i move it and it is also numb.
