Why am I constantly tired?!


Question: Why am I constantly tired!?
I truly believe that I am going thru menopause!. I haven't had a normal period in a year but my doc gave me the hormone test that came back negative!. That was also 6 months ago!. I have hot flashes, night sweats and a load of other odd symptoms including dropping 25lbs in a month!.

I am under a ton of stress!. I am very upset with my daughter!. I just had a party at my house for my whole family!. I have a litter of puppies to care for!. My water heater just broke and dumped 40 gallons of water all over!.

So, I fell asleep Sunday after everyone left!. I slept until 2am then was up with the puppies!. Fell back to sleep until 6!.30a for husband and garbage detail!. Fell back to sleep!. Slept until 11am, took care of the hubby's lunch and wet vac'd the floor for three hours!. Fell back to sleep!. Woke at 5!.30pm, fed him dinner and fell back to sleep!. I't 1!.45am and I'm up again with puppies!.

I usually get by on 5-6 hours of sleep a night!. What is up with me!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Stress causes tiredness and interupted sleep!. It could also be an iron deficiency!. I take two capsules a day of Omega3 Fish Oil plus a daily vitamin and it has helped!. I too have a busy life, a husband who snores, a pt job, a 23 cat sanctuary, 3 spoiled demanding dogs equivalent to little three years old's in fur coats, plus a fairly large home and yard, plus a garden and greenhouse vegetable garden to care for!.
It's exhausting!. Sometimes I fall asleep sitting at my computer!. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You are in NEED for a break!. ask your husband if he will take any responsibility over the puppies!. also tell your husband that you are in deep stress and i'm thinking depression state!. You need more sleeping time and maybe a good family holiday once the puppies have grown up a bit!.
