Brief Answer:
Get general med. checkup
Detailed Answer:
Dear patient,
if someone with your symptoms comes to my office i'd do a general checkup which includes:
1. Clinical examination to check general health
2. Blood work for thyroid, iron, vitamin b12 and folic acid to rule out any deficiency
3. Interview for any stress factors
Therapy would depend on the findings in those points. Please talk to your local GP/ family doc about these suggestions.
Best regards
