2pm slump

Anyone get this 1-3pm tired slump garbage?  I've always read that's a peak/normal time for people to get tired.. never happened to me.  All of a sudden two weeks ago I get tired between 1:30-2pm like clockwork.  And no matter what I do, I just want to close my eyes. It's overwhelmingly tired, I hate it.

Anyone get this? Ugh.

Zzzz..

Re: 2pm slump

  • I did when I was anemic. I mean, I'm sure could be a sugar/caffeine crash too. But that sudden overwhelming feeling of exhaustion and needing to just take a nap NOW only happened when I was anemic.

    Well, and also in my first trimester ;)

    I am anemic I feel this way a lot. I could seriously nap several times a day.
  • I get that feeling around 3pm.

    I might be anemic too. I am so tired most of the time, and its not because I don't get enough sleep.

    Yeah this is like... overwhelming, though. Like if I don't close my eyes I'll go crazy and I'll literally fall asleep standing.  It's been happening for 2 weeks.  I wonder if it's because my eating has been a bit off and not as good?

  • Oh yes.  2pm and I am ready to take a nap - on my feet, practically.  DD, of course, is ready to par-tay by that time. o_O

    At my worst being anemic, I would take a nap anywhere. Once, I drank a large cup of coffee and still fell asleep on a bench while my friends were literally feet away building something that involved hammers and drills.

    Couldn't hurt to get it checked.

    DS is usually ready to party at 8pm and I'm just ready to go to bed.

    lol I drink 3 cups a day and I yawn drinking my coffee.
    I think I need to refocus on my eating and exercise.. see if that improves it.

    Good luck, I hope it helps.  I wish I could eat junk food all day long, not exercise and feel great.  I usually eat a lot of junk food and rarely exercise, but when I eat right and exercise I feel better.  What a boring bummer...  ;-)
