We notice that many people are looking for a solution/treatment for fatigue. This is also shown by statistics from a recent study (N=115,878) by 15 Minutes 4 Me: a whole 28,8 per cent is looking for a remedy for fatigue.
That is why we propose 5 simple steps toward recognizing fatigue here. Even just recognizing fatigue is not always easy.

3. Is my general functioning deteriorating? Significant consequences of fatigue also make it so that our daily functions are affected, such as our memory, focus, mood,...

4. Do I feel worse? With this we mean possible depressed thoughts, which might occur. If you re not well-rested and the fatigue has been going on for some time, chances are that your mood is not as good as it otherwise would be. Examples of this are crying fits, snappy reactions to questions,...
