I am worried that there may be something wrong other than my anxiety. Which is the story of my life anyway but I have been so tired lately. Is this anxiety. It seems like I have acouple weeks when I feel great and then it all crashes down and I get so tired and out of it. I start to worry that I am going to be like this forever. i take 150mg of Zoloft a day and It has been great before then all the meds I took didnt do anything for me. but I still get these feelings. The holidays seem to be the hardest I guess because I start thinking of loved ones. Anyway I am just constantly tired and I am afraid that there may be more wrong. Is this an anxiety symptom? Please any comments will help. Thanks to all of you you make me feel like I am not alone

Sure anxiety can make you tired. Two saturdays ago while i was at my worst i slept all day and night not getting up for anything. Your heart races, muscles tense up, adrenaline pumps, etc.... it wears your body down. I would get blood work done just to be safe and ease your mind.

Anxiety leaves me extremely tired too - it's very common. Depression can also make me feel tired, but in a different way. I am tired all the time. Like meirocco said, if you really are concerned though, you could always get bloodwork done to ease your mind.

Yes, I have been tired for a year now, or so it seems. I have better days when I feel more alive, but mostly feels like I am just awake, and going through the motions of the day. It is better when I am busy or working, but at home...count me out! It is really hard too b/c I have a 2 1/2 yr old DD, and she is my life. I feel like a bad mom sometimes b/c I don't have the energy to play with her. I am looking into getting bloodwork done to rule out diabetes or cancer, both of which can make you tired. BUT I am sure it is just good old anxiety!
