management professional presenting with constant lethargy, headaches, dizziness (chakkar), and burning eyes strongly points to occupational burnout, severe sleep deprivation, and chronic digital eye strain.
While stress is likely, we must evaluate for underlying physical causes such as vitamin D or B12 deficiencies, iron deficiency anemia
Next Steps
Get blood pressure checked immediately to rule out hypertension as the cause of the headaches and dizziness, and schedule a routine optometry exam.
Seek immediate emergency care if the dizziness turns into room-spinning vertigo, or if the headache becomes sudden, unusually severe, or accompanied by vomiting.
Health Tips
Digital Detox & 20-20-20 Rule: Rest your eyes by looking at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds every 20 minutes, and strictly cut out screen time at least one hour before bed.
Hydration & Ergonomics: Drink 2.5 to 3 litres of water daily to eliminate dehydration-induced headaches, and ensure your workstation setup promotes proper neck posture.
Structured Recovery: Protect a baseline of 7–8 hours of sleep, and integrate short, 5-minute movement breaks every hour at work to improve systemic blood circulation.

Did you go through blood tests? I advise you to check your iron and hb levels first. As anemia ( low level hb ) is one of the most common cause of lethargy and tiredness.
Next Steps
Check your hb levels and iron levels.

Constant tiredness with headache, dizziness and burning eyes at your age is most often due to low B12 or vitamin D, anaemia, thyroid, early sugar or BP issues, poor sleep and long screen hours. Dehydration adds to the headache and chakkar. This is very treatable once we find the cause.
Next Steps
Check BP and get CBC, TSH, fasting sugar, HbA1c, B12 and vitamin D done. Consult me on Practo with the reports and I will guide you on treatment.

Aapke symptoms—lagataar thakan aur lethargy, weakness, headache, chakkar aur aankhon mein burning—ko dekhte hue sabse pehle humein iska underlying cause identify karna zaroori hai.
Iske common causes mein anemia/iron deficiency, low BP ya dehydration, vitamin B12 deficiency, thyroid problem, blood sugar abnormality, inadequate sleep/stress, aur kabhi-kabhi eye strain ya vision-related problem bhi ho sakti hai.
Next Steps
kuch basic investigations suggest karunga:Reports ke basis par treatment targeted rakhenge
Health Tips
Tab tak proper hydration rakhiye, meals skip na karein, adequate sleep lein aur prolonged screen exposure kam karein.

You should get your blood pressure checked. Or if you have a machine in your access, try measuring it everyday for a week at the same time. If the mean is more than 140/90 mmHg, then consultation is needed. It might be due to your dietary changes, change of place, any event happening in your life, if any.
Next Steps
Try adding some physical activity and fruits in your day.

Feeling drained all the time, with headaches, dizziness and burning eyes, can come from several everyday causes. Poor sleep, long screen hours and too little water are common ones. Low haemoglobin, vitamin D or B12, and blood sugar or thyroid changes are others. A general physician can check your blood pressure and order basic tests like a CBC, blood sugar, thyroid, vitamin D and B12 to narrow it down. Meanwhile, keep regular sleep hours, drink enough water and take screen breaks. See a doctor urgently if the dizziness makes you faint or a headache comes on suddenly and severely.
