What helps with severe fatigue when you feel too tired to function?

Has anyone found anything that really makes a noticeable difference in the fatigue. All my health issues cause fatigue. I just feel like crap in general all the time and I'm too tired to do anything about it! I used to take Adderall and it seemed like i felt better then. I may talk to the dr about getting back on it. Maybe that would help. It's not much of a life when you don't feel like getting out of the bed, ever!

Severe fatigue from chronic health conditions can be incredibly draining and impacts so many aspects of daily life. Speaking with your doctor about fatigue management options, including discussing your past experience with medications that helped, sounds like a thoughtful approach to exploring what might work best for your current situation.

Is Adderall addictive? I may ask my Dr about it?

I have neuropathy from nerve damage and I take Gabapentin 3 times a day. I also take generic Excedrin for my regular pain. IE headaches etc. Seems to work for me. Not 100 percent but enough to get out of bed.
