I feel so mentally drained

I don't feel like doing anything. I have so much mental fatigue that it's hard to even move. I have pressure in my head and I just feel so exhausted. I hate this.

I use a nasal spray and an antihistamine, I feel much less head pressure and difficulty in motivation when I work it into my daily routine. And then I take more steps to gather my reserves. Do the smallest thing you can for yourself and see how that helps.

I think my issue is caused by an imbalance of bacteria in my gut due to antibiotics. I took them because I was prescribed for a UTI but now it seems like I'm having a lot of fatigue and very slight stomach tightness.

@BigGyro09 I really feel the difference when I take pre/prebiotic. I use cheaper ones even.

@InvitedMozart I read that that can help. I wouldn't be surprised if it's also the way I eat. I had symptoms before taking antibiotics though. Those symptoms are gone and now it's just bad fatigue. I don't know if I actually did or didn't have a UTI at this point. I'm just going with what my doctors told me.

@BigGyro09 A moment forms into another, one thing that's not constant is how we will feel about it. I hear that, and I know we do what we can. I hope you can start feeling on the mend real soon. Meds and healing can be a rough ride sometimes

@InvitedMozart Thanks. I just hope I can stop posting about it and get myself together.

Try some mindful meditation on YouTube. I’ve found it to really relax me!
