Years ago you rarely heard of sleep apnea...now it seems a LOT of people have it and use the cpap machines at night to sleep.....can't help but wonder if it is that more people are getting it now days...and why?  or if just as many people were getting , it just was not diagnosed years ago...hmmm
Years ago they didn't have the technology to diagnose it like they do today. I just got a new CPAP machine and it has a chip you can remove and send in with complete details on your sleep they can analyze, make adjustments that are recorded on the chip they send back to you and when you slip it back into the machine, your therapy is updated until the next time. In the years I have been receiving treatment I have seen amazing strides take place and I am very thankful to medical science for saving my life.

It's a good thing to be leery of energy drinks. There are many herbal supplements and teas that can help you stay awake. Make sure you're eating well, get a good diet, and get plenty of sleep.
Hey, this just gave me a great idea for a blog post... off I go.

Get at least 8 hours of sleep a day or just take naps if your still sleepy.

Also have your thyroid checked, hypothyroidism can make you tired.

I think it is normal to have a day like that every now and then.  I find I have more energy on a regular basis if I get good sleep at night and try to get some light exercise.
