Talk:Lethargy

It is tiredness, weariness, fatigue, or lack of energy. It can be accompanied by depression, decreased motivation, or apathy. Lethargy can be a normal response to inadequate sleep, overexertion, overworking, stress, lack of exercise, or boredom. When part of a normal response, lethargy often resolves with rest, adequate sleep, decreased stress, and good nutrition.

Redirect?
This article does not explain the difference between lethargy and fatigue; AFAIK there is no strict medical difference, and this article would probably best be a redirect to fatigue. BubbleEngineer (talk) 22:40, 10 May 2018 (UTC)


 * I think they're different ideas. If you are lethargic, you don't feel like doing anything, even though you could.  If you are fatigued, you might want to do something, but you don't have the energy to get up and do it right now.  Lethargy feels closer to apathy than to being tired.

 * I would go with on this. Lethargy is closer to a blend of apathy and drowsiness than fatigue, which can be just physical. &middot; &middot; &middot; Peter Southwood (talk): 09:26, 3 August 2022 (UTC)

Good Nutrition
What exactly is good nutrition ? Is lethargy caused by a lack of any specific nutrients ? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kendirangu (talk • contribs) 06:25, 28 May 2018 (UTC)
