Causes of weakness and drowsiness
Perhaps one of the most pressing "autumn" questions is how to get rid of weakness and drowsiness. Of course, not everyone suffers from this, but such symptoms, I think, are familiar to everyone without exception. Already from this fact it becomes clear that there can be many reasons for weakness and drowsiness. The most harmless of them is autumn. Man is a part of nature, and in autumn, nature falls asleep. And therefore, in the fall and winter, we need about an hour more time to sleep, or even more. We don’t change our schedule, adjusting it to the changing seasons, and then we are surprised - I sleep as always, but I do not get enough sleep. Naturally, the need for sleep has increased. So, the first way to get rid of weakness and drowsiness is sleep. Sleepy? Sleep. Listen to your body, it will not advise bad.
It is a different matter when a person notices that he sleeps a lot, at least 8-9 hours a day, but still does not get enough sleep, and weakness and drowsiness accompany him throughout the day. This is likely a cause for concern. If you get cold and gain weight, hypothyroidism may be the cause of these symptoms. This is a disease of the thyroid gland, quite serious, but quite amenable to correction by modern means.
Another common cause of weakness and drowsiness is chronic fatigue. You should not think that this is the same as usual fatigue, only longer. Chronic fatigue is a borderline condition that, if untreated, will certainly lead to illness. It is based on a violation of the immune system, and it is she who is responsible for protecting the body from diseases. A failure in the immune system never goes away with impunity, but what it will result in, an autoimmune process, an oncological disease or a chronic disease - it depends on the state of the body and individual characteristics.
By the way, the presence of any chronic disease in itself leads to weakness and drowsiness. Chronic diseases weaken the body, and it is not surprising that at the same time it feels lousy, although a person often cannot determine what exactly hurts him, since such diseases tend to be latent. Any source of infection can give such symptoms - from a rotten tooth to an inflamed uterine appendage. It is not worth guessing here, but it is worth undergoing a medical examination in order to accurately find the focus and eliminate it.
Avitaminosis is another cause of weakness and drowsiness. Avitaminosis is seasonal, in our area, usually in spring, but not necessarily. If a person eats unbalanced, he can feel a lack of vitamins at any time of the year. Feeling weak and tired? Review your diet. Get rid of fast food and heavy food, eat fresh vegetables, fruits, dairy products, and after a week of such a diet, a burst of strength and vitality is guaranteed to you.
