What's a possible diagnosis for this situation? I'd like to be prepared?

So my friend had suffered from a bad car accident last year and up until mid summer this year I've been helping her walk again. It would be late at night and an inconsistent schedule even if I'd work early the next morning. I'd lose days without sleep but I didn't care. Then we lost her this summer and everyone is still trying to cope. I actually normal at work but become unexpectedly exhausted even though I was ok 2 minutes before. It's a sudden and instant shift from energetic to lethargic. I walk to work and sometimes I don't remember crossing the street to get there. Anyone know what this may be?

I believe you may be dying but only a doctor will be able to tell you how much longer you have to live. Schedule an appointment with your family doctor. When the doctor asks what brings you in today show them what you have written here. Use that as a basis for having a frank discussion on how you are doing. They can do a full physical and neurological workup to see if anything you are taking or doing may be causing or contributing to your issue. They can refer you to a sleep specialist for a sleep study. Your doctor can also refer you to a mental health professional that can evaluate your mental state. Once the test results are in, treatment options can be discussed.
