Answer 1

Fatigue can be due to many things, including both physical (illness, lack of enough "good" sleep, chemical sensitivity) and psychological (stress, depression, neurological imbalance.)

You say you're a smoker -- have you considered giving this up? Nicotine is a stimulant, and if your body becomes acclimated to it, and expects it in your system, then when you're not stimulated, you'lll feel tired.

Some people also have allergies/sensitivities to certain substances that may cause them to feel fatigued.

Finally, there is also an increasingly studied disease known as "chronic fatigue syndrome," the cause for which is still being researched by doctors.

Answer 3

You propably should visit a psychiatrist. It could be Depression, Anxiety, Chronic fatigue syndrome or Excessive daytime sleepiness.

Answer 4

Using caffeine to "fix" this problem just keeps this cycle going.  First, get rid of the caffeine.  As a fellow smoker, I can tell you that nicotine in the evenings can keep you awake or from sleeping soundly.

Now for how much you sleep.  We're all a little different with this, just like most other things.  Your body may require 8.5 - 9 hours of sleep each night.  Depriving yourself of that 0.5 - 1 hour of sleep will have the effect your describing - and you can never catch up.

Try to increase your sleep time for a few weeks - like an extra hour per night.  Also, try taking a multi-vitamin.  I'm convinced I feel better when I'm taking mine, but it takes about 2 weeks to start feeling different.

Answer 5

one of the most concerning and serious causes of generalized weakness and fatigue is cancer. you should have a workup done or suggest it to your doctor. you know your body best so any changes you are concerned about should be addressed with your doc. if the doc doesn't take your concerns seriously, go see another! good luck buddy.

another cause of fatigue is depression. how has your mood been lately.

hypothyroidism can also be a cause. with hypothyroidism, patients gain weight, have cold intolerance and feel depressed.
