I wonder if we've all started to see some long term side affects of drinking coffee, since almost everyone I know has been addicted to coffee for the last 10+ years.

The advice to keep the TV off is a sound one, but I tend to watch less than 4 hours TV a week, so I can't attribute it to that.

Diet is an interesting factor - rising food prices mean that less of us can afford to buy quality food, but at the same time I'm hearing the general tiredness complaint from people who certainly can.

HAARP is interesting, and its possible that something is occuring in the electromagnetic range, but then I would expect to see animals suffering similar symptoms - has anyone noticed that?

I would also have expected something akin to Tao's hum being reported by people with extremely sensitive faculties.

There must be someone on ATS who can clue us in on solar cycles - are we in a major sunspot/flare cycle? Maybe thats an influence?

I`m in agreement with Niteboy about food being the cause.Even my cats are complaining that they are still hungry after a feed.
I dont know if anyone else has noticed this but i feel tied all day yawning and such and at night i come alive.Its all rather peculiar.
I also remember reading sometime back about people who are either daytime people,(the ones that awake happy and singing,whistling etc first thing in the morning),or nocturnal people (night shift workers and security types).
I believe im from the nocturnal variety.But i thrive lots of sunshine and heat or i have zero energy.
I need a solar panel.
On my noggin.

LOL. You know, I went from drinking between 6 and 10 coffees a day to less than two a week about two months ago because I developed what seemed to be some kind of allergic reaction to it - it was hell on my kidneys, and I was suffering acute stomach cramps. The weird thing was that I knew it was the coffee that was doing it without seeing a doctor or any other kind of physician.

Interesting thought though. A particular food stuff/product that may have changed, thats common to a large section of the population.

I seriously think that people are just rushed from cradle to grave.

At some point you have to allow the body to use its natural sense, unfortunately, with job, home family, chores and social life among other things it is impossible to listen to ourselves.

If you eat when you are hungry, sleep when you are tired, a whole new world opens up for you biologically, spiritually, emotionally and mentally. Again it is next to impossible with the hurried lives we live.

Take time for exercise, stretching and breath, getting outdoors, taking in sunshine, and listen to the small inner voice of your bodies rhythms, and you should come out of the sleepy haze in due time.

Have you eaten seasonally? For instance eating what is ripe at this time of year? If you can incorporate the foods that are natural to nature at this time of year, and drinking teas with local grown honey you will also be able to combat some of the allergens that cause sleepiness.

I enjoy doing a bit of colon cleansing this time of year which also helps to eliminate some of the toxic buildup which is attacking your immune system and making you loose energy.

My favorite mix is "Perfect 7". It has Plantago psyllium, L.P. ovata seed and husk, buckthorn bark, cascara sagrada, alfalfa, rosehips, lactobacillas bifidus, bentonite clay, cayenne pepper, garlic and goldenseal.

It is distributed by Agape Health products Los Alamos Ca. A 21 oz bottle 600g, is about 32.00 USD.

I feel it too......

Mono superbug anyone?

"Un-reality"

That's what it seems like to me. Literally the world looks different- more real, less real - I'm not sure which. A sense of timelessness or outside-of-time. I do sense that it's related to the timeline thread but I have no proof or explanation.

I have been experiencing very disturbed sleep, intensely bizarre dreams and a sense of extreme fatigue for about six weeks now. My family as well.

This is not the kind of discussion that I usually participate in but something is up. Just yesterday, my typically practical and unflapable husband commented that it felt the day was caught in some sort of time warp, as time was just moving so slowly.

Yesterday I was putting the clean dishes away, and I felt weird and was slow doing it. I didn't feel tired and my muscles didn't feel weak. I think it was so boring that I just lost the will. Whenever I had a dish, I would feel like dropping it. This is probably not related to the thread, but whatever.

could the extreme low activity of the sun beeing involved??????

I do feel tired at time and i don't know why. I have and currently am working out everyday lifting weights and power walking for the past 4 years or so and for some reason i still get tired. I don't understand it but i thought when you working out and in healthy shape you should have more energy. But then agian i smoke a cig and drink a bit on weekends. So im guessing it cancels each other out. But yes time i don't smoke or drink im tired.

Global depression, ?hopelessness,?

Do these/most people spend a lot of time on computers?

Over stimulation, TV, PC ,Cell phone,ipod,politics, get outta my head.

I'll tell ya after surfing the web in the morning, it sure is a downer.

Then you butt heads with a few people on forums, that is an energy drain.

GO FISHING

GONE FISHING

Wow I can't believe so many other people are feeling the same way as I am. I have been feeling so tired and fatigued over the past 2 years and have been to he doctor many times with many different hunches but every time I go he tells me that I'm in great health, above average. I never get sick, I almost always get a full 8 hours of sleep, I eat right but I just can't seem to figure out what is causing it.
