Is there such a thing as energy sickness?

Have you ever felt like you were coming down with something, but not in a physical sort of way? Feeling like you were unusually energetically off?

That was me over the last few months.

I felt unusually heavy, drained, and unsettled without cause. To add insult to injury, not knowing the cause drove me nuts. I’m a get to the root kinda gal so I can deal with whatever the source of an issue is to move past it.

I was thinking maybe it was Mercury being in retrograde. (Yep, that’s a real thing.) I thought maybe it was menopause. Of course, some of what I’d been feeling might have been related. I hadn’t been sleeping all that great which I thought may also have been the reason but I’ve lacked sleep before and never felt this off and tapped out.

Then a thought hit me, could there be such a thing as energy sickness?

With my curiosity on high alert, I took to Google and typed in “energy sickness” and sure enough there were over 73 million results.
