Although it is not a matter of one day, fatigue develops gradually; and you start feeling physical, emotional or mental exertion. It also interferes with normal daily activities, social relationships, productivity, family life, and work performance. The pattern of occurrence of fatigue is erratic. It can develop out of the blue at any time of the day. You start feeling worn out despite getting enough sleep. A lot of factors contribute to fatigue such as buildup of health issues,long-term conditions, life experiences,inadequate sleep, emotions, poor diet, or stressful events. Based on these factors, fatigue is classified as a physiologic fatigue, chronic fatigue, or secondary to other health problems. (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC181235/)
