What is the difference between fatigue and laziness? Being lazy is deemed a character fault yet fatigue is deemed a medical condition.

My whole life I have been called Lazy by parents and teachers.

Is Fatigue just extreme laziness or are they different?

Fatigue is a lack of energy that can be caused by lack of proper rest, mental and/or physical illness. It's not the same as laziness at all, and I find it very upsetting when people think a person is lazy when they may really be depressed and other things that aren't their fault.
