Always tired 💤

[Roxx14]

Being tired all the time is that sign of anxiaty and depression ?? Even when I sleep for 10 hours during the night I wake up feeling tired and my legs feel abit weak like I need to sit down again, but that’s all I do is sit or lay down i don’t know what else it can be !!?

It is one of the symptoms, yes. I go through phases where I’ll sleep for 10-12 days at a time for months. Yet when I wake up I feel exhausted and my body will be so weak that I’ll get out of breath just doing simple things like showering. And than there will be months where I have extreme insomnia.

However it’s always best to check with you doctor.

have you spoken to your GP about this? - ask to be tested for thyroid, diabetes, and also for vitamin/mineral deficiencies (B12, folate, D and iron

10 hours of sleep, you might've sleeping to much.

I hear sleeping to much can make u moore sleepy and depressed ?! 🤷🏼‍♀️

[bigjimmy in reply to Roxx14]

Thats what I thought too.

I've gotten tested for pretty much everything possible and the can only find anxiety and depression. I too sleep 10 hours a night then during the day only want to lay down because of how lightheaded/spacey and exhausted I am. Depending on how severe the anxiety and depression is I do think it's possibly the reason we're tired all the time :/ it's hard to accept though.

Ask your dr about sleep apnea too.

Yes me too. I have been sleeping for 20 hours at a time and waking up not refreshed. Then I started having panic attacks. Was put on sertraline. Am better now. Speak to your gp.
