  • Mental health conditions: fatigue is a common symptom of many mental health issues and may be accompanied by symptoms including irritability, difficulty sleeping and lack of motivation.<\/li>
  • Excess, unrelenting stress can also provoke\/lead to feelings of physical and mental fatigue without having a mental health condition. This is commonly called \u201cBurn out\u201d.<\/li>
  • Lifestyle: excess alcohol or other drugs, poor diet or lack of regular movement\/exercise can lead to feelings of fatigue.<\/li>
