Tired even after sleeping

You get the hours, but you still wake up exhausted.

Waking tired after a full night is not something a bedtime tool can fix, and it can have causes worth checking properly. This one is for a doctor, not an app.

  1. Technique

    Talk to a doctor

    Unrefreshing sleep can come from sleep apnoea, low iron, thyroid problems, low mood or medication, among other things. A doctor can help rule these out. Mention loud snoring or pauses in your breathing if anyone has noticed them.

    When to get help
  2. Technique

    Keep a two-week sleep diary

    Note when you go to bed, roughly when you fall asleep, when you wake, and how you feel. It makes a conversation with a doctor far more useful.
