Hi prefabsprout: Oh yes... fatigue is something I've pretty-much always struggled with to one degree or another. Of course, at this point, part of it is age-related. But fatigue is nothing new to me. No matter how much I would sleep, I'd still feel exhausted much of the time. I don't know what has caused it. I've had a life-long struggle with depression & anxiety & I have to believe that wears on a person.

I read an article in our local newspaper a while back that talked about how the number of hours sleep a person gets is not all there is to feeling rested. What's also important is that a person gets down into the deeper levels of sleep for sufficient lengths of time because it is at these deeper levels that both physical & mental healing occurs. Unfortunately, the article didn't say anything about how to get down into those deeper levels of sleep.
