I'm not sure if this happens to anyone, but i feel tired all the time, not sure what's wrong.

It might sound stupid, but i have tried everything i know. A lot of people gave me good tips, but so far they all failed me. My friends suggested that I should go to bed early and wake up early (as I used to sleep late at night) and sleep for only 8 hours a day, so that's what I have been doing.

Others suggested to work out, running, eat more healthy, drink more water ... so I started to run about 2 miles every other day, eat more vegtables and drink about 2 liters of water a day. Still ... even worse, whenever I'm done running, i feel like i just want to go straight to bed and take a long nap.

So ... are there any new suggestions ? I'm not interested in 5 hour energy though, cause it's only a temporarily relieve. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks all.

Im searching too...go into the general discussions area and look for a thread titled "I need more energy" I got some good info from folks so far.... also someone posted something about lemon slices under the arm pits will give you energy.... Im about ready to try that

I wonder if you are taking a STATIN.
One of the most common side effects of statin use is feeling tired all the time.
This article explains how it is that this loss of energy is a direct result of statin usage

You should have your thyroid checked... one of the most common causes of low energy. If it is in the normal range but low normal some action should be taken, even if your doctor thinks its not necessary.

Is there a stress issue?

Many people get more energy from taking mega B vitamins, Vitamin D3 and iodine supplementation, and jarrow whey daily. Whey gives more than protien, it boosts the glutathione pathway... but get your thyroid checked first.

I have seen many complaints very similar to yours. You may think this sounds stupid but I I have to ask. How old is your mattress? Because if you're not receiving good quality sleep then you will be tired all the time.

Have you tried taking a multivitamin?

Just me, here are the two threads that you mentioned...

Also, toward the bottom of the forum page, under "Quick Reply", you'll find "Similar Threads", which are older threads relating to the same subject. Many times it's worth looking those over for more info.

Just me, if you find out what helps, please share. I find it difficult to maintain any energy in this relentless triple digit heat in central TX. More than a month now, over 100F. Even the humidity is low, around 25%. The problem is that it is difficult to find a good time to open the windows for some fresh air. It only gets down to 79F in the early morning hours. Putting humidity into the house is not the answer either. After all, it is the job of the air conditioner to remove moisture. I'll bet it is not much different in Houston.

It would be nice to get out an walk in the fresh air. That always helps me.

Could be your thyroid like Arrowwind mentioned, Look into iodine supplementation.

Well james has not bothered to come back and to see what we had to say. No matter what, a diagnosis should always be persued. Its hard to make recomendations if a complete physical has not been done in such lack of energy issues and most health matters
