Tired all the time
I’m sleepy all the time. I go to bed at 9:30, get up at 4:30 and I still am sleepy all the time. I’ve almost fallen asleep at the wheel on the way to work, I yawn all during work. I feel like I could be asleep before my eyelids fall. I come home and am sleepy, I try not to take naps; usually I fail.
I’m not interested in sex as much because I’m tired, I don’t want to do much of anything anymore. I piss Master off all the time because I’m too tired for this and that. I go to bed too early for him. I can’t stay awake long enough for anything and I’m worried.
What if I’m ill? What if this sleepiness won’t go away? What if I become dependent on caffeine? What if this ruins our relationship? What if I stop caring?
Master wanted to go see a movie tonight but by the time we decided to go it was 8:30 which put starting times at 9:30-10pm. On a normal day that way too late for me. When did it become too late? Why the hell can’t I stay awake like an adult is supposed to be able to do? I feel like I’ve become an adult with a 7 year olds bedtime. Fuck this pisses me off.
I just want to be normal; complain of insomnia once in a while, thrive on 6-7 hours of sleep and not have to take damn naps every 4 hours. What’s so hard in that?

i’m sorry you’re having such a hard time, hun
maybe seeing a dr. might be a good idea. it could be chronic fatigue syndrome or something. i’m no dr. i seem to have the opposite problem, i’m tired because i don’t sleep enough. there has to be a happy medium somewhere, right?
*hugs*

If you can see a doctor and/or maybe a nutrionist. When i was having this exact problem, it turned out i had low iron, easily fixed with a few diet changes and an over the counter “blood builder” supplement. It didn’t take but a few days of the pills to give me energy and once i stablized my iron food intake, wow what a difference.
Also caffeine can in some folks make them more tired…its rare but it happens.
In the meantime, i’m sending healing vibrations your way.

More unsolicited advice… sleep apnea can make you really sleepy during the day (Griz has this), so I guess I’d second the advice to visit an MD.
Hope you’re feeling more rested soon!
