Persistent fatigue can be caused by depression, neurological issues, or chronic kidney disease. Each condition affects the body differently, leading to feelings of tiredness that don't go away easily.

Feeling tired all the time can have different causes. One reason could be major depression, where people feel very tired and sleepy during the day. If you or someone you know is struggling with mental health, it might help to visit 988lifeline.org.

Another reason might be neurological problems. These are issues with the brain or nerves that can make you feel sleepy and tired during the day. It's like your body and brain are not getting the rest they need.

Lastly, chronic kidney disease can also make you feel very tired. This happens because the kidneys are not working well, which affects how you feel overall. The body might not be able to get rid of waste and toxins properly, making you feel more tired.

If you're experiencing persistent fatigue, it might help to talk to a healthcare professional to find out the cause and get the right help.
