Tired All the Time in Your Mid 30s and 40s?

if u feel tired all the time

u think it's stress at home and work plus the kids messing up your sleep

maybe poor nutrition too since your diet has not been great

or maybe too much caffeine ?

but ..

then u sleep well

eat great

work out

and STILL u are tired ..

then u realise

it's because u are OLD not tired

and u can't make old go away

that ship has sailed

hit me like a brick wall many years ago and yes i'm still tired

just keep truckin' on boys we rest in the grave

Tired in your 30s? It's called wasted zombie syndrome.

I am 40 and I do not feel this way.

I think diet and working out are important, however I would def incorporate meditating as well.

It just seems strange to be out of energy already. I'm in my 40s now and have the same energy I did in my 20s

by 30s my energy was 50% of my 20s at 40s it was 40% and now it's probably the same but when it dips it dips hard

it might be over

Nah, I actually have mostly the same energy at age 40 that I had back in my 20s. Obviously my environment is different, so maybe not as many pressures to go out and do things all the time. But when I want to do things, I have plenty of energy to do it.

Am 46. Work stress hits me like a ton of bricks everyday. I workout, eat semi-decent, no alcohol, my only vice is caffeine, and I feel like a walking corpse.

I quit caffeine about a month ago and am less tired

Could be placebo though because I had read a bunch of stuff on quitting caffeine and being less tired prior to quitting

I'm in my late 20s and tired all the time. It's from wage slaving though.
