😴 Feeling Tired All The Time

Step 1️⃣: Start with the basics: Sleep, Hydration, Eating Regular and Being mindful of screen time

Step 2️⃣: Think about stress & mental health: Low mood, anxiety, and burnout can all drain your energy — even if you feel you’re getting enough sleep

Step 3️⃣: Consider medical causes: Thyroid problems, Vitamin deficiencies which can be checked with a blood test

Step 4️⃣: Track patterns
When does the fatigue hit? Morning, afternoon, all day? Consider a diary

If tiredness is affecting your daily life, speak to your GP or qualified clinician. Listen to your body, and don’t hesitate to get it checked out.

"The service and care that �Dr Katie Barber and her team provide is outstanding. �Dr Barber has fantastic expertise as well as wonderful interpersonal skills. I have a long and complex history of chronic vulval pain, but Dr Barber was able to diagnose immediately, explain and then provide a treatment plan. I cannot recommend her highly enough; her clinic has been pivotal in my recovery."
