Every morning I wake up physically drained and completely unmotivated.Well not every morning. But it comes in bouts, and this last bout has been going a long time.After a few hours out of bed or a nap not long after getting out of bed I usually gain enough energy to do stuff, but it's rough.I'm getting enough sleep. When it's like this I'm in bed at least 9 hours simply because I'm too tired to get up earlier.I can't work out what the cause could be. My current guess is it's because my sleep is often disturbed by my mind going through memories of stupid/embarrassing/shameful stuff I did, and that sometimes affects my dreams, too.
>>34160925Iron deficiency and vitamin C.Unironically load yourself up on red meat and chicken (NOT TENDIES I MEAN BREAST AND FINE RED CUTS) and oranges and you will feel better.If the problem persists go to a doctor. But exercise and more iron should do er.
>>34160925You reckon it could be a nerve disorder? I felt the same way for years and it turns out I had a condition under the pots umbrella (dysautonomia)Assuming you’re good on your vitamins it may be worth talking with your doc about some non-visible conditions, mine said that pots disorders are severely underdiagnosed Hoping it gets better anon
Get your bloodworkCheck your vitamins and ironCheck for sleep apnea
>>34161013>>34161675I have had blood tests and such recently without anything coming up. I realise I've stopped taking my vitamin d/fish oil and guess it wouldn't hurt to try iron and vit c thoughI have to imagine exercise would help. I was getting plenty then I got injured and stopped, but I'm pretty sure I was having the same issue then, too, though it's worse now>>34161240>You reckon it could be a nerve disorder? I felt the same way for years and it turns out I had a condition under the pots umbrella (dysautonomia)Sounds complicated because there's a lot of possible causes but I'll try ask if it comes to that.
There's a kind of depression, or a feature of depression which effects people in the morning, you see it a lot in elderly people. No idea if it's a recognised condition
Check your vitamin D fren
>>34160925Get a better Mattress.
>>34160925Go to a doctor and ask for a polysomnography. Sleep apnoea is an obvious possibility, but there are a lot of others.
>>34160925Try tea or coffee in the morning.
>>34160925It could be a bunch of different factors. >snoring Get a $100 mouth piece (one that you form to your teeth like a mouth guard) and slowly start wearing it to sleep to see if it fixes sleep anpiea >diet Less to no sugar Less to no alcohol As others have said vitamin supplement, probably just a basic multi would be fine. Do a little research though. >envoronmental factors This one is a bit harder. Is your bed saggy? Too soft ? Get a firmer mattress What is your air quality like?Get a air purifier Have you tested for black mold Lastly meditation and exercise ( only do these after all the others ) Do a light calisthenics exercise set 2 hours before bedtime, to the point where your body is pretty tired feeling Then do a 5 minutes mediation to clear your mind. Yeah it isn’t easy there are not shortcuts in life.
>>34163046Oh, also I forgot to mention, routine, routine routine, go to bed at the same time, get up at the same time, eat dinner at the time time, exercise at the same time. Your body gets into a better natural cycle that way. All of this can take months for it to better your sleeping good luck. T. I had to do all of this to stop feeling super tired all day.
>>34160925I won't read threads which are probably all about not following the usual dad advice about health and fitness. Nothing can be done because OP probably already knows what to do but is too lazy to do it.
