Answer 1

It could be all kinds of things...chronic fatigue syndrome, anemia, certain blood disorders, autoimmune disorders.  The list of potential diagnosis is very expansive.  The only way to know for sure is to get checked out.  Call your doctor today and get it worked up.

Answer 2

Dehydration can be a cause of fatigue.  Most people don't drink enough water.

A lot of 18 year olds don't eat properly.  Perhaps you need more fruit and vegetables for more antioxidants and enzymes that you need for good health and energy.

It could, of course, also be a medical problem and if you think that might be the cause of your fatigue then you might have to see your doctor.
