Default WTH is wrong with me?
This has been going on for 2 weeks. I'm just tired...all the time. Twice last week I overslept. I drive to work kinda bleary-eyed, come home the same way. I could hardly stay awake this afternoon at the office. Last night I went to bed at 8:10, still didn't want to get up this morning. Right now my eyes are itchy and tired.

I missed a day of work last week because I had some 24-hour virus or something. I wonder if it's related to that. Appetite is off, but losing no weight. Nothing unusual has happened in my life. I have my semi-annual checkup Tuesday, but I doubt that the doc will have any revelations for me.

I even considered depression, but I don't feel sad or morose--just tired. Besides, I've never been diagnosed with depression before. Friends haven't mentioned any change in me. I'm just feckin' miserably tired!

•Sexual dysfunction (weak erections, fewer erections)

You need to quit imagining guys doing the nasty. Your brain is tired of it.

I had a very similar problem. Ask your doctor to check your Vitamin D level. Mine put me on a 8 week regiment of 50,000 once a week. After that I take a multivitamin and two 1000 doses of Vitamin D a day, one in the morning and one in the evening.

Since I've started taking the Vitamin D, I don't get groggy, I get my usual 5-6 hours of sleep a night and don't run out of energy during the day. Overall I feel much better even when the stress kicks it up a notch.

My father had major fatigue issues awhile back. Turned out to be his liver. Though he was a heavy drinker.

You still can't cope with the fact you're old.
Try getting less sleep.
The older we get the less sleep we need.
I think I read that somewhere.
