This is a common scenario on the approach to the menopause and you are within the average age range, 45-55.
However, fatigue could also be caused by low iron, low thyroid, or low vitamin D so it is best to ask your doctor to test for these just to rule them out.
In the meantime, you may find taking a good female multi-vitamin supplement with extra magnesium helps - magnesium is very important at this time and needed for mood, relaxation and sleep!
Try to have 30 minutes of 'me-time' every day as well, studies show that this can reduce menopause symptoms quickly and if you let everyone know you need to be left alone for 30 minutes to improve your mood, I am quite sure they will be happy to remind you!
