Was the best way to fight fatigue in the middle of the day?

(Story system checked)

In the video: Have you already tried this method for dealing with fatigue in the middle of the day?

Waking up is not the most beautiful time of most people, even if you are reasonably coping with your morning, this moment that the clock rings or your child wakes you up (each and every one of her way of waking up) is always a difficult moment.

You are torn from erasing sleep, rubbing eyes, begging for a cup of coffee, bruised and tired.



In which cases is this feeling of fatigue a normal matter and when does it signal to us that something deeper has gone wrong with us?

Because fatigue, which is a completely normal and even expected matter in our lives, has a slightly less normative relative, and that is exhaustion.

Fatigue is considered more severe than fatigue and it may also be linked to illness.

Again, the fact that you are tired is not really a problem in itself, not healthy anyway.

Certainly not in these days when many adults find themselves performing too many roles at the same time for too many hours a day - working, teaching children, cooking meals.

According to a survey by Bloomberg News, some adults work about three extra hours a day, compared to the pre-epidemic situation.

So no wonder we're all tired.

With what our lives look like right now, no wonder we're all tired.

Lack of sleep over time, for whatever reason, can be a problem.

The U.S. National Institutes of Health cites sleep deprivation as one of the causes of accidents. Other problems that can be caused by sleep deprivation are problems with memory formation and changes in consciousness.



Fatigue is a slightly different matter, and it can sometimes be a symptom of illness. Fatigue can be ameliorated by drinking a stimulating cup of coffee or a reassuring nap, or alternatively a more substantial change in sleeping habits.

If this is exhaustion, chances are coffee will not help you.

A review of the phenomenon of fatigue, published in the journal American Family Physician, explained that although fatigue may be a psychological condition that cognitive-behavioral therapy may benefit, in some cases it can also be caused by physiological factors such as anemia, cancer, depression, viral infection and other infections.



Although it may feel like the last thing they want to do - those who are exhausted can get a significant improvement in their condition from exercise.

Stimulants like caffeine tend to have less effective effects on fatigue states, but sometimes they can also be beneficial.

What to do?

If you feel that your burnout and fatigue may be more than just a hard night or a particularly busy day and that these feelings have been with you for a long time and even worsen, it is advisable to consult your family doctor.

She will be able to start an inquiry that will help you understand whether it is fatigue or exhaustion, and if it is the second option - are there health factors that are responsible for it.

Accordingly, she will also be able to recommend lifestyle changes or other steps that will help you deal with the situation and improve it.
