If you are feeling sluggish all the time, few factors could be the possible reasons, apart from the sleep hours. These habits are draining your energy and making you feel worn out.

Not drinking enough water is one reason. Research show that dehydration makes you feel tired, as it leads to reduced blood volume.

Addiction to alcohol, technology
Drinking before bed is not a good idea either. This would certainly interfere with sleep routine and awakes you in the nights. Addiction to technology is a contributor.
