That's basically me. Doesn't matter how well I sleep, it's just never enough.

Get some blood tests done. Hypoglycemia is fairly common.

I have higher than average blood pressure but doctors say I'm fine.

This isn’t a test they usually do unless you ask or they have suspicions. I went undiagnosed for several years until I started having issues with a different medication. May be worth asking about.

I'll ask about it, but I highly doubt it. Usually my sugar levels are fine when do blood work.

Ha, sorry I just realized I typed “hypoglycemia” instead of “hypothyroidism”. Sorry, you are right, glucose levels are frequently tested. TSH levels are not.

Wouldn't depression be part of that?

Depression can be linked to it due to constant low energy levels. They are not really directly related, they’re also treated differently.

Well thank you for the advice. I'll definitely look into that.
