Does vitamin D deficiency causes tiredness, depression and irritation?
human
Hello, I have been diagnosed with low vitamin D. The number my Doctors office gave me was 6 from the blood tests. My doctor told me to take 5000 mg of Vitamin D daily. Would this deficiency cause me to feel tired, depressed, irratible and just not myself? Thank you,

!You have Vit d deficiency-- Yes, this can lead to all your complaints.  This is becoming quite a common presentation due to lack of enough sun exposure these days. it should be treated  and if you do it feel any improvement in your symptoms then you may go yo a psychiatrist and discuss them in detail.# when there is Vit d efficiency-- it will be best to take its treatment and then see if you need some more help.
