Lack of energy

[Foxxxy]

for the past few weeks, all of a sudden ive been feeling so tired non stop that i dont want to get out of bed, im a gamer and gamed all my life and i dont even want to get out of bed to do that, im always feeling tight in my head and neck/shoulders and my eyes feel baggy, whenever i do get out of bed, i feel like closing my eyes will make me instantly sleep, im sleeping way too much, like 12/15 hrs a day/night and my sleeping is spiratic and out of nowhere. Just nonstop tiredness and fatigue, dizziness and tightness, feeling helpless and feeling like this is it, this is what its gonna be like forever. Ive been taking medication for anxiety for nearly 10 years, wondering if this is symptoms of depression and if i should get it checked...

Hello Foxxxy..

A very warm and caring welcome to our forums..

Im sorry your struggling so much with feeling tired so much...

It could be depression you are struggling with..but we are not Drs here and cannot give you a diagnosis at all..

Along with all your other symptoms I feel it’s important for you to reach out to your GP...and talk to him/her about how your feeling so you can eliminate anything else that could be causing you these symptoms....

Here if you need to talk...

Take care dear Foxxxy and hopingbto hear from you again..

My kindest thoughts..

Grandy..

very weird thing happened today, i feel tired and like everythings going in slow motion, i was playing a video game that i always play and i legit said to myself "it feels like im on the moon" it was a car soccer game and it felt like the ball was floating, like the cars were floating, like everything was slower than it usually is, however i was still about to somewhat play like i usually would, when i went off, my head felt spinny, i felt tired. i feel like im going insane...

Feeling tired & lethargic, & sleeping all the time can certainly be a sign of depression.

However I think your first course of action should be to speak with your GP. Does your GP prescribe your meds or a psychiatrist? Might be worth speaking to the prescribing doctor about your meds as well in case it’s a side effect?

Lastly, if your body needs the rest, let it. Don’t judge yourself or criticise yourself, just give yourself some self care.

Wishing you all the best
