What is Fatigue?
Fatigue is a feeling of constant tiredness, weakness, or lack of energy that can be physical, mental, or both. Unlike normal tiredness, fatigue does not improve with rest and can interfere significantly with daily tasks and quality of life. Fatigue can result from various factors, including stress, medical conditions, substance use, or mental health disorders like depression.
In addiction treatment, managing fatigue is crucial as it often affects recovery motivation and overall well-being.
