Actually, this used to happen to me quite a bit.
Increase the amount of protein in your diet. Even if it means drinking a protein shake. This will help termendously...you should have no less than 80 mgs of protein on a daily basis. More if you are exercising.> I cannot get my psychiatrist or GP to listen to me when I say how incredibly tired I have been the past few years. I excercise on a regular basis and eat a healthy vegan diet and am under 30 yrs of age. I am on lithium (1200 mg/day) and effesor sr (300 mg/day.
> I am just so tired - how can I get them, especially my psychiatrist to take me seriously and listen to me when I say the meds must be causing it.
> Does anyone else have problems with being ridiculously tired? I am ready to start taking caffeine pills so that I can function for a full day. This has been going on for so long and I thought these side effects would go away or lessen. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
