The Causes Of Low Energy

Non-illness related chronic fatigue can have a wide range of causes, among them:

• excessive pressure at work or at home, especially time pressure
• stimulus overload -- too many simultaneous responsibilities, demands, expectations, and activities
• insufficient sleep
• worry about family, especially medical and interpersonal problems
• inattention to daily rest-activity cycle -- too much activity, and disregard of the body's natural rhythms
• too little physical activity, a sedentary life-style
• preconscious psychological conflicts, especially fear of failure
• monotonous, boring work
• chronic frustration at work, dissatisfaction with superiors, co-workers, and opportunities for advancement
• inadequate stimulation, especially lack of friends and social isolation
• emotional loss, especially of a love one
• failure at work, in a marriage, of an investment, or at anything important to you.
