Not being funny, but what condition is your mattress in? Ours is wet through after 5 days and I only noticed a couple of months ago when I kept waking feeling wet.

The mattress police on google reckon to cover your mattress with plastic and that bed wetting can be the result of an un-happy childhood.

FTFY.

If you are a man sharing a bed makes you tired and stupid. You should move into a different room.

Don't think my mum's frequency was 50hz. I spent ages looking for an invisible blueblottle before realising what it was.

Not tired but I felt very sort of uninspired for a few weeks recently. Then I plugged my little bedside CD player back in that I had turned off because it was buzzing and I suddenly feel good again. It was around when I unplugged it that I started feeling crappy.

The remedy is a thing that buzzes in your bedroom.

Isn't that because it reminds you of being in the womb? I've heard of quite a few people who claimed to sleep better with a constant humming noise in the room.

Are you drinking enough water?
Having your five a day?
Moving your body around enough?

Find somewhere to take a 20 min nap during your lunch break. You'll definitely feel a lot more productive (not on cUK!).

There could be several reasons for tiredness:

• Medical - something like diabetes can have those symptoms
• Stress - your body is being whacked by anxiety
• Boredom

I find the latter one to be the most demanding in terms of making me struggle to get through the working day. If I'm working on something really interesting where I can keep my brain engaged I don't get tired, but otherwise clockwatching and counting the minutes down to going home time becomes a favourite pastime.

I was nagged into it.

Yeah, those female GALs can get quite feisty if they don't get their standard 27 (alien) hours of sleep a night!!

I replaced my mattress.

I still miss the lovely comfy 40 year old one I had before.

So why replace it then?

How does everyone deal with not feeling knackered all the time. Had it for a two years.

Thought my jacking my main job and going back to being a jobbing contractor the extra time would pay off. But no matter how much or how little or how much I drink or don't drink I wake up feeling like tulip every day and unprepared for the week.

How do you break this cycle???

The mattress police on google reckon to change your mattress every 5-7 years and that tiredness can be the result of a bad or worn mattress.

Fresh fruit n veg and exercise. None of this walking/jogging crap - big cycling, lots of swimming etc

[SupremeSpod]
