Mental fatigue and life

Look into adrenal cocktails. I drink multiple a day. Super helpful for neutralizing stress. I do half a glass of OJ, half coconut water, and some sea salt. Brain fuel. Feels great. If you have bloodsugar issues, you might prefer lemon or lime juice over orange. Even grapefruit juice if you like. ️ 

Glucose is the brain's preferred source of fuel so it can be VERY helpful for the stressed individual. Have some juice ️

i feel more mentally worn and emotional and overthoughtful more towards the end of the day and at night. probs best i should rest and slow down at that time but i work afternoons and only get back at night or in some times at next morning.

I suffer terribly from mental fatigue - particularly when I wake up in the morning, strangely enough!
It usually takes me an hour or so to get myself up and do stuff.

I find going to the gym late afternoon / early evening helps me feel mentally energised.
I try to switch off from everything around me and focus of the weight or cardio task. For an hour or more I am not bothered about the outside world or my daily worries.

I have recently felt really tired but been persuaded to go for a walk and feel less tired afterwards so it must be mental nit physical exhaustion.

try some protein instead.
i find eggs in the morning for breakfast with my toast made me feel better in my mood over time so i think eggs if you have them every day like for breakfast or whatever make you feel better for some reason.

also i noticed that when tired at work if i have this grenade protein bar with 20g of protein in it, it makes me feel more energetic and clean than what any energy drink does.... more energy than a full sugar monster energy drink with tons of caffeine.... so if you want energy, you need to ramp up your protein levels. and for mood id also give eggs each day a go which also contribute towards a decent daily protein.

Yea i can relate to that.  A good way to put it, a decluttered house is a decluttered mind sort of thing

When I feel like that I clean something..

It's activity that occupies me in a predictable and easy manner, but which yields a positive result every time. 

A form of mental rest and recuperation, and in my case it "cheers me up" looking at or living in a cleaner more orderly environment.

I crave sugary foods when i feel like that and I know it wont make me feel better.  I have Autism and Narcolepsy so its hard for me to know what is causing what but when I feel mentally exhausted I sleep.  I have just woke from an hour long nap (which was my lunch break at work) and i feel much better but know that the clock is ticking and the tiredness will come back within next few hours.  Mental exhaustion is more to do with being overwhelmed by stimuli whereas physical is more muscle related i suppose.  I am crying alot recently and I think it helps me.  Crying is a natural thing so I don't think it should be avoided.  I have been assessed for Autism only in the last few months and got a diagnosis 4 days ago, the assessment is tiring and my second stage was 4.5hours long but I am glad I did it

Sugar is not the way forward. Water, especially fizzy, is better.

I was at a local theatre, for an exhibition launch, last Thursday; and I didn't sort out my sleep pattern until yesterday morning. Driving my Artist friend and back, then heading home, left me buzzing. Suddenly, Antisocial Media became my best friend.
