I am always tired. Am I doing too much?



I'm 13 and I'm ALWAYS tired. I tried skipping all of the activities that I normally do one day and slept once I got home, but that didn’t work. I have a before-school activity and an after-school activity. Am I working myself to hard? Please help me.

Hey girl, you are not alone! You may be getting tired because of the time change and how early it gets dark now. Surprisingly, that has been proven to make people feel much more tired than they normally are.

Another surprising factor is the weather change. This cold weather can put a strain on your body. Although it’s hard to get used to the seasonal changes we can’t avoid, it’s also important to remember that you’re supposed to get eight hours of sleep each night.

A before-school activity and an after-school activity does sound like a big strain on your body, especially if you have them both every day. Try choosing one or the other if you don’t think your body can take it anymore.
