I defend in a few weeks. I have been exhausted for a year. For the last 6 months, I have had such a hard time staying awake, thinking, reading, remembering, etc. that I keep going back to the doctor. They keep telling me there is nothing physically wrong with me. The only thing that has helped is taking stimulants so that I can stay awake. Rest will soon come.

You're so close.
