Struggling with Low Energy Levels Despite Healthy Lifestyle

I have extremely low energy level drops throughout most days, even though I exercise every day, and I eat healthy.. for some reason i still feel off and not sure why.. i have seen a psychiatrist and was told my dopamine is low, was put on medication for it and had to be taken off of it since it dropped my weight too much. Other then that, I’m not sure what the issue is. Last time i had blood work mostly everything was normal other then my A1C level which is pre diabetic

❤️I struggle with low energy levels also and I personally do not feel what you are facing is depression. Lets not be too quick to jump on that bandwagon. My symptoms also could point to depression but I know that I am not. I do have low iron but have had an iron infusion recently that didnt help. Im now working to find out what other deficiencies there may be that could cause low energy. The search is on.

I guess because I get different degrees of depression that I could relate to a lot of this

I'm not crazy about eating animal products and that is where you get iron. But I love eating bean and cheese and they do make me feel better
