Season 14 - Episode 11: Psychosomatics of Fatigue Problems

Fatigue is a common issue that affects people of all ages and can have a significant impact on daily life. While physical factors like lack of sleep, poor nutrition, and over-exertion are often the primary cause of fatigue, some experts believe that psychological factors can also play a role in its development and worsening.

Stress is one of the most commonly cited psychological factors that can lead to fatigue. Stress can cause physical and emotional exhaustion, making it difficult to perform daily activities and leading to feelings of fatigue. In addition, stress can also affect sleep quality, making it more difficult to get a good night's sleep, which can contribute to fatigue.

Depression and anxiety are other psychological conditions that can also contribute to fatigue. People with depression may experience a lack of energy, fatigue, and difficulty with motivation, while those with anxiety may experience constant worry, restlessness, and fatigue.

To address the psychosomatic aspect of fatigue problems, it is important to focus on managing stress and promoting emotional well-being. This can involve practicing stress management techniques, such as meditation, deep breathing, and exercise, as well as seeking treatment for any underlying psychological conditions like depression and anxiety.
