Hello,
Thanks for your information and clarification.
From the description that you have given, there could be many possible causes but the three most common causes are
1) Anemia
2) Hypothyroidism
3) Depression
Anemia is a hematological disorder in which there is a low hemoglobin content and hence reduced oxygen carrying capacity in blood, The same can be confirmed by doing a simple CBC blood test. The other possibility of hypothyroidism can also explain the above stated symptom. The same can be confirmed by doing TSH levels. If all these are normal then you should see a psychiatrist who can evaluate you for having a depressive episode.
Hope I am able to solve your concerns.
If you have nay further query, I will be more than happy to help you.
If not you can close the discussion and rate the answer accordingly,
