Exhaustion
Long time lurker, first time poster
25mcg levothyroxine, adhd, 42 woman
In the past three months, I’ve been dealing with exhaustion. I go to bed at 10:30 and wake up at 11 ( I’m currently a SAHM) and need to take a nap in the afternoon (I dream during my naps and fight waking up). I’m also noticing more hair loss in the shower (almost to the point I dread taking a shower)
I’m so sick of this utter dysfunction and I thought it was depression but my psychiatrist thinks it’s my thyroid. My latest labs showed elevated thyroid stimulating hormone, endocrinologist seems annoyed that I seem concerned.
Any ideas on what I can do to be a functioning human being again?
