Do you normally have a lot of energy? What boosts your energy?
I used to before I got sick. Sunshine and warm weather really helps. Why do I live in New England? It snowed again today just to be annoying.

                                        Yes. And I maintain my energy by [mostly] eating right, getting proper sleep, and MOVING. The human body is a use-it-or-lose-it kinda thing.

                                        try Nature's Bounty Vitamin B Complex sublingual drops. As good as a B12 shot for me.
I haven't had energy since I was 12 years old. My energy levels dropped off a lot when I was in 9th grade, and never recovered. I do notice a difference when I eat a strict whole, raw, plant-based diet, though; my energy levels noticeably increase — but not to the point where I'd consider myself to truly be energetic. A little exercise can help, too.

                                        Coffee of course ... but in general I have better energy now that I’m vegan than before. ... also when completely wiped out sexual energy can amaze oneself, that’s the real resurrection.

                                        Yes! I have an enormous amount of energy. Being among good company and having good conversations , vitamin/mineral supplements, good sleep, working hard and feeling productive, regular exercise, attention to my appearance, COFFEE, and finally: rest and relaxation a must (easy music, bubble baths, watching rented movies in bed, cooking).

                                        I am nothing but energy when I'm truly rested.
I take daily supplements and different herbal extracts. I love my different herbal teas.

                                        No, not really but I do get a natural buzz if I find something interesting to do and sometimes have to finish it. I'm all or nothing by nature and don't do things by halves.

                                        It boosts energy to take an early morning walk.
Also great, a cup of cho-wa tea a day, tiny amounts of MX sarsaparilla powder (powdered root beer), dump most cooked and processed food, dump red meat-most meat, actually, except for fish.

                                        Where I live the malady 'SAD' is common. Even though our climate is mild we cannot escape the fact that our northerly latitude gives us long, dark winters (and vice versa summers). I find energy begets energy (like sex summers are the worst) and when I am active I get more energy. Biking, hiking, kayaking outside projects add to my energy levels. Consequently, sitting (at this site) in the winter becomes a bit draining.
