I have a 25 year old daughter who appears
to have been suffering from this for
years. She is a vegan. She also gets
depressed and lacks energy, although she
does try to get out and exercise each day.
But sometimes she just sleeps the day
away... Due to this she can't have a
full-time job. Any comments, thoughts
greatly appreciated.

Being a vegan she should go to a
nutritionist and make sure she is
consuming the proper nutrients because
this could be contributing to her constant
fatigue. Also depression can cause
horrible fatigue. Is she in
therapy/counselling? If not it may be a
good idea just to see if the depression is
contributing to her fatigue and if it is
then the doctor could perscribe medication
or may continue with therapy. Also could
she be anemic? Many vegans are anemic due
to the lack of iron in their diet. Sorry
im rambling I hope this helps!
Love

never heard of that before. I guess it is
true what they say about blondes!! Loads
of love, laughter, and joy!!
