What would cause a person to have no energy?

[enchanted771]

In the past 2-weeks i feel very lethargic. It is a major challenge to get to the gym, and sometimes i skip it completely. Any idea what could be causing this? just dont like this feeling that I dont want to active, and feel very sleepy.

Eating habits, weather, mental reasons, medicial problems...pregnancy?

[enchanted771]

just had period a week ago. Its cold here. I guess I am feeling low because i am still looking for a job and stressed out. Eating habits are good.

Has it been dark and stormy (snowy) out by you? That could be a contributing factor?

 

You could also be suffering from Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD).

Depression, illness, vitamin/mineral/nutrient deficiency.

 

Are you getting sufficient Vitamin D? It is a challenge in the winter, and unless you drink lots of milk or take a supplement, you almost certainly aren't getting enough.

 

Winter blahs certainly de-energize most people.

[enchanted771]

yes it has. I am not a winter person, i hate it.

Could also be your self esteem, lack of motivation and confidence.

 

Looking for a job is one of the most tedious difficult tasks to do. No one likes change and it's easier to just not do it and sit around wishing a job would come to you. It doesn't happen though, it takes effort. However, you need to find that motivation and 'reason' to do it, it will completely change your mental status, including your lack of energy. Eat right, think right and accomplish your goals.

Lack of nutrition/calories

A new baby

Not enough fresh air (this one is a big one for me)

Sleeping ok? That would be my guess.
