More tired after drinking coffee / energy drinks
Why does this happen to me? Is there any way I can increase my energy levels as some days I feel so tired even after getting good amounts of sleep (7 / 8 hours) and as a med student I need my energy 😭

I have the exact same problem and I’ve found that eating healthy ( fruits, vegetables and smoothies) helps and so does exercise. when I feel tired it wakes me up and releases hormones, I believe. Everyone is different but give it a try and let me know how it goes.

I do find that smoothies help, I’ll try this - thank you so much!!

As a medical student, surely you know to see a doctor about this in the first instance? Have you had your bloods checked recently?
i have. my gp said this happens to some people and that it’s not something to be worried about. just wanted to see if anyone else experiences the same thing as I do.

I thought it was common knowledge that energy drinks aren't healthy due to caffeine and sugar highs. Read this:
