Speak to physician: Your symptoms of tiredness despite 8 hrs of sleep may be due to a number of factors. From a sleep perspective, find out if medical (hormonal etc) or psychiatric (mood disorder) factors are playing a role. Tough to know if sleep (quantity or quality) is the culprit. Call your physician to set up a physical.
