Summary
A college senior reported constant daily tiredness since high school, with brain fog, blurry vision and low mood. They had tried vitamin D, regular walking and sunlight, regular meals, 8–10 hours of sleep, naps, sleep-schedule changes and iron supplements, none of which helped. They remained in college but said the tiredness severely affected reading, focus and mental health, with no improvement by the time of the post.
