Vision Thing User ID: 1110850 United States 01/19/2011 09:08 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Yeah this happened to me in 2009 for a lot of the year. How old are you? Male? Female? I am pretty sure my episode was menopause related. Sometimes it's good to just go with your body and if it needs sleep, just sleep, it can be healing, but mine was getting out of hand, I was having total lethargy and inability to focus. Started using some natural products for hormone balancing and snapped out of it instantaneously. |

Socapatoy User ID: 1236072 United States 01/19/2011 09:30 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I've notices this lately as well. Waking up is the hardest thing lately. Its like I've become addicted to dreaming and coming out of them has become more and more difficult. "If there were no rewards to reap, No loving embrace to see me through This tedious path I've chosen here, I certainly would've walked away by now. Gonna wait it out." [link to soundcloud.com] "We cannot change anything until we accept it. Condemnation does not liberate, it oppresses." |

Or, maybe whatever they're spraying to minimize the radiation is. This is why there's a surge in auto-immune diseases (which show up with thyroid problems). A whole lot of people have thyroid problems, the numbers have been escalating. Nobody knows "why". Funny that, huh? |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 1236519 Australia 01/19/2011 09:34 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | yeah I know exactly what you mean.Are you on medication, dont answer that, just wondering.I have been on medication for about two years now, and yeah I sleep real good now.So long as I take my meds at night otherwise I dont sleep period.I used to up at five am everyday of my life, now Im nearly 40 and will sleep through multiple alarms.Cant hold a job down. Read somewhere about "lethargic depression" it was a story, but it struck a nerve with me.I find now it seems to take all day just to wake up.Do you dream? I have fantastic dreams every night.I have those dreams on the back of my mind all day.And every day is a new one.Though I have a few dreams that every few months or so, part 2 or even part 3 kicks in. I struggle to understand how if a dream is supposed to be random, how I can "continue" a dream, from where it left off? I guess my only real advice to you would to try and wake up earlier, drink coffee, and get busy early in the day and see if that makes a difference.I feel tired all day too, so I can understand what your saying.Do you find it difficult to initialise tasks?, when your doing something, do you find yourself stopping, sitting, and just thinking about nothing, sort of trying to collect your thoughts? Thats pretty much my bag.I hope things go better for you.Its all a big struggle through each day for me, and im glad when the night has come.Because soon I know Ill be able to sleep again. Just be carefull of the "forever" bit, cause doctors would look at that straight away as suicidal thinking.Trust me on that one.Take each day at a time, dont worry about tommorow, I will admit here to trying a "little" speed awhile back.I couldnt believe afterwards, for a few days how much energy I had.It made me wonder if there was some kind of treatment I could do with that they havnt tried yet.Not that Im suggesting amphetamines is the answer, maybe some kind of inert drug, say for instance the way chillies affect the same area of the brain as cocaine, but you dont get high on chillies?well Ill stop dribbling now hope ive said something that could help.................... |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 1235569 United States 01/19/2011 09:36 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Yes very much so lately, I am sooooooo tired all the time. It also seems people are very on edge or irrational lately. We had an event happen with some very close friends around the holidays that got blown so out of proportion, people are still harboring bad feelings. Just talked with another friends that had a similar thing happen. Small thing blown hugely out of proportion. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1235692Could you be depressed? No offense, but that's the insensitive answer we've all heard way too many times from our friends, family, and doctors. I went two years straight getting tests done to no avail. Now, I just work and sleep. 15-20 hours, sometimes longer on the weekends. I take iodine and it helps a little, niacin does a little, but it doesn't make it go away. Coffee and sugar just makes me jittery to where I can't stand it. |

That's exactly what has been happening to me. I'm not on any medication, and I've been cutting down on the caffeine lately because it was making me irritable. I also feel like I've been having some really weird dreams, but I don't remember them when I wake up. My appetite has also been much less than normal lately, except for chocolate, another vice I've been trying to break. I have been sleeping twelve or more hours, and every time I wake up, I have a really bad tension headache across the back of my head, which doesn't usually happen to me except in really tense circumstances. (The last time I got a tension headache while awake was from the D-Day scene at the beginning of the movie "Saving Private Ryan".) |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1235692No need to apologize mate. I'm glad you're better now, I wasn't downplaying that diagnosis. I guess I'm a tad frustrated that cases like mine can't be that simple and fixed so straight forwardly. I don't like admitting weakness either. I went to help a buddy redo his siding and ended up missing a lot because the physical strain made me even more tired. It tears me up to not be able to do stuff like that. |
