So I had my first day of work today and I feel dead. Deceased. Like all the life has been sucked out of me.
Like, I know feeling tired on your first day of work is probably normal, but I feel like I'll feel like this forever considering my schedule of working 8 hours and travelling almost 3 hours.
Does anyone have any good tips on feeling less tired? Give me more than just ''sleep'' please.

Sleep

Coffee, other caffeine [soda], staying busy

i feel like if you have a job, this is how you WILL forever feel. work dominated my life [10 hours a day, 4 days a week] and i spent my days off catching up on sleep. a perpetual struggle. no balance.

I had 3 cups of coffee and a redbull today. Idg my body.
yeah, I'm really scared that'll be the case. I hate it. Makes me feel like a slave.

Energy Drinks. I'm a zombie until I have one - but they quickly become a vice.

If you're health conscious, Omega 3 tablet swallowed down with Lemon & warm water. Perks you right up & super good for you!

Ew ignore those disgusting energy drink tips!

Do be more energetic you have to shape up your life - DAILY exercise (it might make you more tired at very first, but quite quickly you'll notice the spring in your step - doing lots of cardio and squats and what not has meant I can walk for hours and hours and never get tired), healthy food, early to sleep (and no phone / computer / TV for at least an hour before bed) and just basically be good.

I've been working 3 years now and you do get into a pretty good rhythm, cause being tired at work and having a million things be demanded of you is not fun.

Vitamin B12 tablets. Should be rather cheap in NL. They're about £12 in the UK.

Drink lots of water.

Sleep.

sleep, eat healthy. watch out what you eat sis

Sleeping is key, go to bed at the same time every night. Set an alarm on your phone so if you're on your computer, or watching TV you can make yourself go to bed. Keep up that routine and you should be fine. Going to bed at random hours of the night will just mess up your body getting used to an hour.

NO energy drinks. It will just cause a temporarily spike in "awakeness" but after the sugars stop working you'll feel more tired than before.

Sleep well, eat healthy and drink lots and lots of water

Here's a list of things I've found to be effective when I went through a phase of being extremely tired all the time recently:

Don't sleep less than 7 hours a night. Your body CAN survive on less, but if it's significantly less than the optimum, it'll underperform.

Don't sleep more than 10 hours unless you've been DEAD tired for like 3-4 days straight. I found that following oversleeping I spent my days more tired than not.

Eat good food, nothing too oily at nighttime. No coffee at night so you'll be able to sleep.

Vitamins are essential for your body to perform optimally, so take them if you need.

Drink enough water, but not too much before you sleep so you're not waken up by an urge to pee every couple of hours.

Put your phone to sleep mode at night so your sleep (or your attempt to sleep) isn't disrupted.

Don't sleep at a vastly different hour every day. Give your body the chance to know when you're supposed to be sleeping so it feels sleepy then, and energetic when you're supposed to be up and running.

Pee before you sleep. Don't go to bed thirsty.

Try to get your body used to a wake up time so it wakes up without an alarm which is essentially a system to interrupt your sleep pattern to wake you up prematurely.

I guess that's about it?

Smoke weed or take a shot of fireball, it’ll perk you right up

Water and healthy foods.

Go to the health shop and get lots of supplements. First day and week is always the worst. Once you build up stamina and get into a routine it becomes more bearable.
