No...nothing is wrong with your eyes and yes you can read. This is not a joke. There IS something called Tired All The Time (TATT) - Syndrome! I Read this in a book while on the treadmill tonight and was like...they are making up stuff! So doing what I do, I researched it and they were not playing.
They say the symptoms are:
- Lack of energy
- Sleepiness throughout the day
- Loss of motivation
- Poor concentration
- Difficulty carrying out daily tasks
- Feeling depressed without reason
Some causes are:
- Wrong diet
- Sedentary Lifestyle
- Sleeplessness
- Too much stress
Apparently there is also something called Constant Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) to explain a long term set of symptoms that mainly involves being overwhelmingly fatigued. This is considered to be a more severe case of TATT.
All I know is I need to be diagnosed and see if I am eligible for shorter work days to help with the treatment of my TATT!
But seriously...I don't know about you, but those symptoms seem more like DEPRESSION to me. I am not quite sure what the distinction is here. If I felt all of that at once, to me I would think I was depressed. I wonder how long you have to be feeling the symptoms because there have been days when I had ALL of those symptoms besides the one about feeling depression. I may have just been a little sad. So did I have TATT for a day or two?
I am definitely going to be looking into this a little more. Kills me what people come up with! I am going to see if there is a syndrome called CAS...Constantly Aggravated Syndrome!
