To ask if anyone else feels like this lately?

[TwoKidsNoClue]

I don’t know if it’s the weather, a bit of SAD or what. But I just don’t feel myself lately.

I’m constantly hungry and craving chocolate and sugary things - I’ve gained a lot of weight. I’m so tired all the time, and I’m really unmotivated. I could happily stay under a blanket eating biscuits all day! I also feel quite easily irritated and upset.

i was unwell last year and didn’t eat much so lost a lot of weight, all of which I’ve gained back. Ferritin was in low 30s in December all other bloods seemed ok.

anyone?

Thyroid, low B12 or Diabetes suspicions?

Lack of motivation and low mood can be due to so many things: low dopamine, low iron, low testosterone/oestrogen, low vit D or B, infection, high stress levels, poor sleep.. and each one of these things has multiple causes.

Yup, I've felt like you describe at various points in the year. Sometimes I can pinpoint the cause from the above list, and sometimes I can't. The best thing you can do is eat a healthy diet (not dieting), get enough sleep, get 20mins of sun on your skin everyday, get another blood test.

Can you identify what you think might be the cause/s?

I have been feeling a bit down recently. I am fed up of the constant rain. I am fed up of needing to rap up when i go out as it feels like a faf.
