Feeling tired all the time

4 replies

for the last couple of weeks I seem to feel tired all the time. I get up at about 6.30am and was going to the gym but haven’t been for over two weeks. I could happily go back to bed for nap by about 9.30am and have been regularly falling asleep during the afternoon if I am not out of the house. I probably only nap for about 30 minutes but sometimes it could be longer. I generally go to bed by 10.30pm. I am post menopausal. Any tips on getting my energy back?

Do you drink alcohol OP? After the menopause I had to give it up because it just absolutely drained me of energy.

Hayfever? Makes me very sleepy. Or get your bloods checked. I frequently feel the need for snap these days, post menopause, wft, busy life, exercise.

Thanks both. No hay fever or allergies. And no I don’t drink alcohol. My diet has become a bit rubbish the last couple of weeks as well (more carbs and chocolate) so that probably isn’t helping but it seems a bit chicken and egg.
