Some good suggestions already. Let me add one. If you sleep for 8 hours and still wake up tired or are tired and sleepy throughout the day despite 8 hours sleep, you may also want to read up on Sleep Apnea. This is a sleep disorder which interrupts your sleep without you knowing, so despite 8 hours sleep, you wake up feeling tired all the time. See the link in my sources for a video.



If there's an element of being overweight, there's a reasonable chance it is sleep apnea. Even more so if you snore. In school-age children, it's less common but still a possibility worth checking out.

Have your thyroid checked to make sure you don't have some sort of in-balance in your hormone levels. It is really common and 1 and 4 women suffer from some sort of thyroid/ hormone disease. It causes extreme fatigue as well as some other common side effects.

Look up Hyperthyroidism or Hypothyroidism as well as Graves disease and see if any of the symptoms sound like yours. If not it could be a numerous amount of things.. It could be that you snore so your body doesn't rest as well or something as far as sleep apnea as well. Just do some research! You are your best advocate!

Same problem with me. Eight hours of sleep and I was still tired. Go to sleep for nine hours or take two one hour naps during the day to feel refreshed. It works.

Do you wish to use your brain more compared to the usually 10% normal individual does the understand the interesting area of hypnosis with this particular plan https://tr.im/aoYSe , Black Ops Hypnosis.

 

Hypnosis problems knowledge social character and understanding what your partner can do before they take action and it is tightly associated with changing behaviors. If you are just meditating, you are only relaxing yourself. But, you however lack proper understanding of the basis reason behind the problem.

For example, persons might never know that their not enough cultural life and active hectic schedules have already been producing stress. They might think they are really happy with their careers and lives, and keep ignoring the issue till it gets worse so figure out how to best solve this problem with Black Ops Hypnosis.

By talking and hanging out- you then become and "Enabler". That is like giving booze to a drinker. Get away or cut off talking.



1st of all, maybe you think since they are parents they have a right to talk like that as parents. Turns out many parents are abusers. Actually they are not trying to be tough to make you responsible- they are tricking you. This goes for people at school as well.



Hurting people control/hurt others. It's not you.. They are the ones who have a problem. People/parents do mean things or lie to control. They just want the reaction so they can get high feel good from it. You have to look at the agenda. Abuse is anything and words that are not uplifting. So forget what truth is being used right then. Remember -THEY actually get high on being mean, and thats why they do it, they are wrong about everything. The abuser is close-minded and self-righteous.



So the parent becomes abusive and the abuse makes children react with so called mental Illnesses- painful but not a disease - includes all OCD, BP ETC.



Psychiatrists commit fraud in that there is zero science in what they do. They do not draw blood to test for imbalances. For chemical imbalances no test exists. There is no conception of what a correct chemical balance would look like to date. People in the FDA agree. I have links for this.



Remember, after abuse sickness can be a spiritual problem - Jesus name is needed to banish what is there..



Google- "Inside the Mind of an Abuser" http://www.googobits.com/articles/2446-inside-the-mind-of-an-abuser-what-you-need-to-know.html-See how it works and be free...Google "self righteous" God wants you to know truth, forgive, and get away from them. You sure feel better after reading online.

Poor nutrition is probably the origin of many thyroid problems (including low thyroid), and rich nutrition is vital to reversing them, or at least to prevent further decline. Learn here https://tr.im/2LgCq



Healthy thyroid function depends on a range of nutrients, especially selenium, folic acid, and iodine. Since most people cannot optimize levels of these nutrients through diet alone, a medical–grade supplement is vital. Of course, supplements should be used to complement, not substitute, for a balanced diet.



Stress in all it’s forms is another key culprit of thyroid dysfunction. Most of us experience a high degree of the most damaging kind — unremitting stress. It is important for hypothyroid treatment to identify the stressors you face and learn techniques and activities that can help you reduce your stress.

Teens need up to 9.5 hrs sleep. If waking tired, after adequate sleep time, my 2 top suspects are * & ** Take 4 Omega 3 fish oil supplements, daily. They should be certified as being free of mercury, and if containing vitamin E, it should be shown as from a natural source; otherwise it is synthetic: avoid it! Consume with an orange, or its freshly squeezed juice, or another good antioxidant. Consider taking a 100% natural vitamin B complex, daily. Exercise moderately daily. Ginseng reputedly boost energy levels. DO NOT USE IF DIABETIC! See http://www.webmd.com/vitamins-lifestyle-guide/supplement-guide-ginseng & http://www.livestrong.com/article/59753-herbs-tiredness/ Have a high protein breakfast of fish, or eggs and possibly bacon within an hour of arising; they provide a lasting energy boost; no carbohydrates for 2 hrs, or extremely little. I note with interest that the Beijing Olympic decathlon gold medalist had scrambled eggs for breakfast. www.radiantrecovery.com refers. Most people in modern society today eat a poor diet, with far too much processed foods, contributing to lack of energy, depression, and anxiety. Eat more in accordance with your "nutritional type":- ( 20 question quiz http://www.naturalhealthcoach.com/tools ) or at www.mercola.com Also enter "ubiquinol" (a more usable form of CoQ10) & vitamin B12". See http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2003/06/07/iron-deficiency.aspx &

http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2008/12/16/my-one-hour-vitamin-d-lecture-to-clear-up-all-your-confusion-on-this-vital-nutrient.aspx



Minimise/eliminate consumption of highly processed foods, particularly grain products, such as white bread, donuts, cake, cookies/biscuits, or anything with sugar. Opt for more wholefoods, non-starchy vegetables (especially broccoli, and spinach, with lemon, or vinegar), and fruit. Have a medical checkup, (thyroid function, adrenals*, etc. Google: "thyroid; Armour" Check out: www.stopthethyroidmadness.com & www.realthyroidhelp.com & http://www.peertrainer.com/LoungeCommunityThread.aspx?ForumID=1&ThreadID=40858 & www.feelingfff.com ) including blood tests, for low iron levels, blood glucose levels, etc. Many people in Western countries are lacking in vitamins & minerals, such as zinc, magnesium, and calcium, & vitamin D3, (U.S.A. only: INSIST ON the following, or be misled! "The correct test is 25(OH)D, also called 25-hydroxyvitamin D" - "I strongly recommend using LabCorp for these reasons until Quest can guarantee accurate, usable results." From Mercola.com - Enter: TEST VALUES FOR VITAMIN D DEFICIENCY in their searchbar ) so it is a good idea to have those levels checked as well. If the above doesn't pinpoint the cause, or help, another possibility is that you may be developing Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. Check this out at: www.mayoclinic.com See: http://www.collectivewizdom.com/FoodsThatHelpYouReduceStress.html and manage stress by practicing one of the following, daily: www.drcoxconsulting.com/managing-stress.html or http://altmedicine.about.com/cs/mindbody/a/Meditation.htm or www.wikihow.com/Meditate and/or Tai Chi, Qi Gong, or yoga. Females may benefit by balancing the DHA, & EPA versions of Omega 3 in krill oil with ALA flaxseed oil Omega 3, or at least one heaped tablespoonful of ground flaxseed, daily.

You need more energy. And not like a bunch of sugar, just foods that wake you up and give you energy.
