Signs of fatigue


One of the best ways to prevent fatigue is being able to recognise early symptoms and know what to do. Most people have a point at which they become aware of feelings of tiredness bordering on exhaustion.


Being aware of our physical limitations is important because we need to react when our body triggers an alarm bell and ensure we rest. Some of the warning signs of fatigue are:

  • Difficulty keeping eyes open
  • Difficulty concentrating
  • Poor hand eye coordination
  • Excessive blinking
  • Reduced immune system
  • Short term memory problems
  • Irritability and sluggishness
