Why You Feel Like S***
It’s simple, really.
You feel tired all the time. You can barely drag your butt out of bed. You have the constant feeling that you’ve forgotten something. Your head hurts, your eyes itch, and you haven’t felt a modicum of happiness in…who knows how long.
You’d think that with our massive intellect and stunning self-awareness, we’d be able to quickly suss out what the hell is wrong with us. But sadly, we’re limited to browsing self-help articles, spending too much money on exercise apps, and frantically googling the question:
“Why do I feel like shit?”
The reasons aren’t that complicated. It’s quite simple, really.
Your Diet is Shit
As someone who alternates between coffee and beer all day and occasionally eats a banana, I’m in no position to hand out nutritional advice. But I’m going to do it anyway.
Your body needs fuel to operate. I know it feels like you can draw all your energy from cat videos and Spongebob memes, but you can’t. You’ve got to swallow at least a little food that wasn’t made in a factory. When you don’t eat, your body harvests your muscles for energy. It’s true. Your body eats itself. And self-cannibalism isn’t cool, y’all.
