sorry baby I don't
Yes, I take a vitamin a day for years now. It might sound goofy but vitamins might not help your issue. Tiredness, fatigue, lack of energy, etc., might be related to iron deficiency, or a low-grade infection you might not know you have, or maybe your thyroid, or maybe even your heart. Get a check up just to make sure - so says Doctor Mom!
I just looked up your profile to see your age. You shouldn't be tired yet. Along with the other things I mentioned, is there a possibility that you could be pregnant?I'd see a doctor if I were you. Just my Doctor Mom opinion.

I take prenatal vitamins. I'm not pregnant, but we have been trying to get pregnant for a while now and the doctor suggested I take them before we get pregnant to be extra healthy. I do find that they give me more energy
I wouldn't recommend anything without knowing a lot more about you, and even then, I'm not qualified to give a definitive answer that would be right for you, personally.

Vitamin B-12 is an energy booster though. You might be able to get little vials of it in a health food store. It comes in liquid form and you snort the blood red contents instead of swallowing a pill so that it doesn't have to go through your digestive system, but goes directly into your bloodstream and works much more effectively. That should do it for you, but there may be other reasons for your lethargy, so you might want to see a doctor too.
I don't mean to pry...I only asked about pregnancy because I was pregnant at 36, first and only time, and I was exhausted! But, that was just me.

I don't but I should. Everyone should take them if they can't get them naturally through their diet.
I don't take any vitims because I take to many presciption pills as it is for my bad leg.

I take a one a day multi vitamin plus a calcium tablet. It's not a miracle cure but I know I'm getting all the nutrients my body needs. Believe it or not, a half hour or more walk gives you energy too. You sleep better.

Are there no free or low cost clinics in your area Danyale? I agree with those who say you should be checked out by a doctor to determine what is causing your tiredness and fatigue. Anemia is a common cause of those symptoms and can be diagnosed through a blood test. There are several kinds of Anemia, not all are due to iron deficiency, that is why it's important to get tested. There's no point in taking vitamins or minerals that are not going to help the problem. You'd be out more money that way than by going to the doctor. Best of luck with resolving the problem. I hope you find the means to see a doctor because a correct diagnosis is key to determining whether supplementation with vitamins or minerals is necessary.

tiredness and fatigue could be from a number of things...

They didnt know with me for a while that i had an underactive thyroid, which made me tired and fatigued all the time even with vitamins, so then i was put on Synthroid for that. Then in late september and on it came back, but Oct 28 i figured out the problem, it wasnt just me anymore, i had someone else steeling some of my energy, and hopefully i get to pop him out next week! lol.
