Tiredness is a dominant gene (was are NF2 ... )

[Guest guest]

,

I'm not trying to be funny either, but I really think tiredness is common

among all young adults. We stay up half the night, and then expect

ourselves to get up early the next day. Especially in college/university.

Up all night studying/drinking/cavorting then up the next day for that 8am

class, or the paper that's not quite finished ('cause we were

drinking/cavorting the night before ;-)

I was tired all through university (yes I have NF2), but when I finished,

bingo! I wasn't really tired anymore. Now my friends who are students

still are also always tired (drinking/cavorting/studying/papers). I still

have friends even who aren't in school that are always tired. That can be

caused by improper diet as well (generally not enough Iron, or something).

I think there's a tendency to use NF2 as a catch all explanation for every

little problem that comes up. But the fact remains, we're still human,

subject to everyday human conditions and concerns (granted NF2 might make us

a tad more susceptible to some).
