My very best wishes for finding ways to get beyond the tiredness!  |
Yeah I understand what you mean. I don't know where my exhaustion comes from either, since there are so so many possible causes, mental and physical. I feel exhausted but sometimes I just want to sleep because nothing else seems as good as just being asleep or being in bed, which is obviously depression related. But sometimes I go to bed and not do anything because I'm afraid of being tired. Like my toddler is napping now, and yesterday I didn't rest while she did and I was a zombie all afternoon. Now I chose to rest with her even though I wasn't really tired (yet). The whole time I was resting I kept thinking I'd rather be asleep than anything else. But then I remind myself that everything that has happened and made my life "my life" has happened when I was Awake. Weird I know. Best of luck with your exhaustion. Do you work full time?
