Step-by-step explanation
Day time fatigue and sleepiness are primarily due to insomnia, psychological stress and other somatic diseases. They often feel extremely tired and exhausted, don't fall asleep during day and struggle to do normal activities. They often feel feeble, drained, lack of motivation, poor performance, deprived productivity, depression, memory issues, more prone to make errors.
Hence, the first question to be asked is "are you getting enough sleep?" followed by "psychological stress"
