Brief Answer:
Stress induces.

Detailed Answer:
Dear Friend,
Since you have accepted that you have stress, I would attributed your symptoms to stress related tiredness only.

However, I would recommend you to get your Vitamin D and B12 done to check out if you have any deficiencies that can altogether cause tiredness.

My recommendations would be:
1. To sleep for at least 8 hours in a day, that too continuous sleep.

2. To go for morning walk and practice meditation.

3. Take a good multivitamin to help you boost your immune system.

4. In case, no response, a trial of SSRI like Paroxetine would surely help.

I hope it helps you.
If you have any further query, please ask me.
Regards

Hi, Following are your answers:
1. Best things to improve your immunity are fruits, green leafy vegetables, milk and dairy products. If you wish you may take a multivitamin regularly.
