Now it seems no matter what i do, i always get drowsy at some point during my work day. I have tried coffee in the morning, vitamins. bottles of waters, 8 hours of sleep. Sometimes less,sometimes more. I bring a sweater. I keep it on, i take it off. But no matter what I do, there always comes a time that i hit my wall. Usually, right after lunch. Sooo i tried eating little meals during the day so i do not get that i-just-ate-a-thanksgiving-dinner-and-i-need-a-nap-feeling. I need help. What do you do? Is there a cure? Lol

If you can listen to music at work, you should do it. Music can really help pass the time and keep you happy. Work and be dull and monotonous. Find something to distract you from the monotony.

I drink one cup of coffee so that I don't feel like sleeping. Also I energize myself with music that would make me awake.

One tip for you not to stay sleepy during time of work is you sleep early at night so that youll have enough energy to perform your task or work during those time, Itll make your mind and brain to function well and itll give your body full of energy. When its weekdays stay away from sleeping late cause itll only do no good for yourself.
