According to Wellness Mama, the symptoms of his condition can be divided into several stages, as follows:

-“Stage 1- Wired and Tired: Cortisol levels should be naturally elevated in the morning. The first stage of adrenal fatigue is often characterized by elevated cortisol at night (when it should be low), leading to a “wired” feeling at night and difficulty sleeping. People in this stage may also regularly feel “on edge”.

-Stage 2- Stressed and Tired: The second stage shows more severe cortisol disruption.
