I'm always tired?

[SophieeBabessxo]

Well, no matter how much I sleep or rest, I'm still really tired. On the weekend/hoilday, I try to catch up on sleep and I end up sleeping for like 11/12 hours, then about after a couple hours, I will be tired again! Why does this happen?

[Timeless]

who knows, but l get that to... however l got tested for the usual suspects because of my dads diabeties tho the tests never revealed anything to worry about.

its prolly woth mentioning to a doctor but l tend to find that sometimes its just lack of sleep catching up, boredom, or you havent eaten enough sugar to keep you wired lol

[SophieeBabessxo]

ok thanks, i will mention it to mum and see if we can get a doctors appointment or something :)

[Johnna]

The same thing happened to me. The doctor took a ton of blood and diagnosed me with Hashimoto's Thyroiditis. Thyroid problems can lead to exhaustion no matter how well or how long you sleep. I know when I forget to take my thyroid medication I sleep all day.

[SophieeBabessxo]

I asked a friend about this last night (his mum is a doctor, so he knows a few bits and pieces) and he said it might be cause i'm stopping doing as much exercise which is boring me and making me more tired. My mum once mentioned this to me so I'll talk to her again at some point.

[dev.x]

im exactly the same, im so behind in c/w for school because im to tired to concentrate and i dont get a good sleep because of the pain. i dont feel motivated any more. i just wanna wake up and do things! lol

[Katherine]

I get this too! When I can sleep in I tend to sleep for atleast 10 hours if not longer, sometimes 12 hours or more and at the end of the day I'm still tired :s

[SophieeBabessxo]

I'm guessing that EDS can make you tired?

[erwin123]

I always relax on weekend.

[ReineDeLaSeine14]

Yes...my doctor told me that our bodies are constantly fighting pain and are constantly fighting to stay together...and that our muscles work in overdrive to compensate

And plus POTS/Dysautonomia can make a gal hella tired too as can a bunch of other stuff.

If your fatigue is getting to be severe and if you're sleeping more than your grandmother ;) please see your doctor!

[SophieeBabessxo]

It's not too bad, i'm starting to get into a sleep pattern at night now too (:

[Joneswilliamsc]

As you are saying that you are taking too much rest still you feel too much tired. In such situation i think you should get the treatment from doctors. You should take exercises to get relaxed.

I love sleep and I can lay in bed all morning if I didn't have to work. It seems I'm less tired in the summer and warm weather months when I spend more time out in the sun. It seems like the sun energizes me where as in the winter, the sun can be hidden behind clouds for days and even weeks.

[Beth...x]

On weekends all i seem to do is sleep, sometimes after school i have to have a nap before thinking about doing coursework. I was tested for thyroid problems but came back clear and the doctor told me i just has serious fatigue because the pain doesnt let me sleep proply

[SophieeBabessxo]

I keep falling asleep on my boyfriend, and I move a lot when i sleep. Last saturday, i ounched him in the face :/. It was pretty funny tbh :)

[Beth...x]

no one will sleep in the same bed as me anymore because i move to much and end up kicking a punching them :D

[SophieeBabessxo]

I think I may end up the same soon :L

[Katherine]

Falling asleep on youre bf sounds good to me..for you that is, not necessarily your bf all the time lol.

I got tested for thyroid too but it came back normal

[SophieeBabessxo]

I get really tired when I do something during the day. Is that the same with everyone else??

[Beth...x]

yeah if i do anything during the day i get rally tired. I did a biology practical today and had to sleep as soon as i got home becuase i couldnt concentrate on anything.

[SophieeBabessxo]

School is pretty tiring. I always have a nap after school (:

[Katherine]

I'm going through a stage where I feel really tired all the time, I slept for 11 hours or more the other night and still felt tired the next day. I worked yesterday and today I didn't get up until lunchtime :s

[Beth...x]

same here, slept for 12 hours on the weekend and have been going to bed no later than 10 every night and im still wiped out and have to have a nap during the day

[SophieeBabessxo]

My poor boyfriend, fell asleep again on him monday night. And I was sleep talking! Thankfully, it was all mumbles lol

[Beth...x]

im glad i dont sleep talk otherwise my family would never be able to watch tv because i always fall asleep in front of the tv

[Katherine]

i dont sleep talk...have been known to sleep walk! :/ feeling better today, less tired...soon see how long that lasts!

[Beth...x]

Ive been known to sleep walk too :) scares the hell out of people. Im having my thyroid checked again becauses my GP's worried about how tired i am. see how that goes.

[Katherine]

I only had mine checked a few weeks ago and it was normal :s ^^that feeling less tired up there, its disappeared. got back from work and was soo sleepy!

[xxBrittany]

I also had my thyroid checked and everything came back normal as well. WEIRD.
I am always tired. My boyfriend always laughs at me because I am always taking naps.

Sometimes, if you let me, I'll sleep all dang day! :( Then it makes me mad because I feel like I have gotten NOTHING done!

[SophieeBabessxo]

I slept for 13 hours when I was ill :/ And was tired after about an hour!! :(

[xxBrittany]

Ugh! I hate when I get like that which has been fairly often lately, due to my knees and back hurting all the time and making me not get the best rest I could possibly get.

[SophieeBabessxo]

I find that my back makes it incredible hard to get comfortable, with anything :/

[Beth...x]

Same here, my back and hips makes sitting or lieing down comfortably almost impossible im always moving to try and find a comfier position

[xxBrittany]

Are you two my long lost sisters?! Haha.

I go through the EXACT same things.

I did get my MRI results back, and apparently they can't find anything. *ROLLS EYES*

[SophieeBabessxo]

I think we may be Brittany Lol

[xxBrittany]

:) HAha!

[TinyBrooke]

I've read that a TON of people with EDS also have chronic fatigue.
School is really tiring for me, half the time I have to take a nap after school. A lot of times I'll have to fight to stay awake during a boring math lecture, which is not good for me because I'm a teacher's pet and my math teacher's favorite student. :hmmm

[ReineDeLaSeine14]

You're her favorite SLEEPY student :) I tend to snooze though class too and I sit in the front row...my profs can't usually tell when I'm conked out though.

[SophieeBabessxo]

I'm normally shattered after school! Then I come home to a mountain of work to do :/ It's never ending!

[ReineDeLaSeine14]

I'm half dead when I come home...since my accident i come home in even more pain every day. I should do my work during the day but i keep procrastinating!

[xxBrittany]

With college, and dealing with my EDS, and the weather changing I have found myself to be even more tired than my usual amount of tiredness associated with my Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. Ugh. I feel like I sleep ALL the time!

[edsbec95]

i am also tired all the time i don't sleep well because of pain and i pop out joint rolling over so that wakes me up , my mum all way's ask my doctor's why am i so tried all the time , i only walk around they house as i have nerve damage and my joint have got a lot of worse , and my bones are really weak too , i use a walker around the house and for short trips out side the house but i use a wheel chair out side the house most of the time ...

[ReineDeLaSeine14]

Yeah I've been really tired lately but apparently I have a low lying infection which is causing there to be white blood cells in my urine. Plus...it's almost winter which makes everyone tired I think ;)

[xxBrittany]

That's true. I hate Winter. I hate being tired. Oh crap who am I kidding, I HATE EDS!
