Tiredness is a common symptom of diabetes, but it can also be caused by other conditions, such as anemia, or chronic illnesses. Before diagnosing diabetes, it's important to rule out any other potential underlying causes of your fatigue. It's a good idea to get your blood tested to check your glucose levels. If the results show elevated levels, this may suggest diabetes.

It's also worth looking at your lifestyle and diet to identify any factors that may be contributing to your tiredness, such as lack of sleep, stress, or insufficient exercise. Making small changes to improve your health and well-being can help to manage fatigue and tiredness.

could be depression as well. the only way to know if you are diabetic is to check your blood glucose levels.

[mattissebfan5]

So I do have depression but I feel like not from that

[ShesRad80]

im in healthcare and see it all the time, depression symptoms can change. as i said the only way to know if you have diabetes is a blood panel to see where your numbers are, the Dr. will write the request, however if they are normal you are not diabetic. eating a lot of carbs, poor diet, can make you lethargic, not exercising etc, all can contribute to your lack of energy.

[mattissebfan5]

Yeah I don't eat well and don't exercise problem is with my Mental illness I have zero will power or motivation

[ShesRad80]

start with something small like a walk in your neighborhood , routine will build stability.

[mattissebfan5]

Anything I should do straight when I wake up because after half an hour I lose motivation

[ShesRad80]

a walk, its good for your overall mental health

[mattissebfan5]

Ok so I will try cheers for helping me

[ShesRad80]

no worries, give it a go and in a few days just update the question if you can 💕💕✌

Diet does influence your energy levels

Not an excuse but having mental illness I am very low in serotonin so food gives a boost I know I have a food addiction so it makes it harder but I have had this issue for a long time

You really need to see a doctor and get some blood work done.

[Nikki1989]

Better see a doctor and have some tests done. This could be serious.

I have no idea. Good idea to check though. Make sure you have high protein breakfasts, no pops
