Supplements for severe exhaustion

2 replies

LimitationsonAspirations · 01/03/2026 12:39

Can anyone recommend something that may help I currently take feroglobin and omega 3 plus B12 and Vit D.

I wake up exhausted. I struggle through every day. If I have to do one extra thing it makes things worse. I have to have naps as literally just fall asleep. At night I wake up hourly though??

Is there something that may help? Melatonin even ? I can’t function and I’ve felt like this for about 5 years now

You need to see your GP for blood tests. This is not normal. I suggest you get thyroid levels checked for a start. Also Iron and Vit B. Also, if you are waking up hourly is sleep apnea a possibility?

Stop taking the b12 and iron until you have had your bloods checked (if you’re taking them they may show as higher levels on the blood test) - better to get an accurate reading of your levels so you don’t end up supplementing too much!
