What are you eating for dinner around that time?

I found that usually pastas and breads do that to me at dinner, to the point I cannot even keep my eyes open and need to lay down for 10-15mins after dinner - which makes me think that perhaps I am carb-crashing after the meal. I most notably felt this effect while on anti-depressants, which throws your body out of sync. Not sugar, caffine or other pick-me-ups helped as much as having those few minutes to just "reboot" my body.

You may want to supplement some vitamins with lunch so by the time dinner time rolls around you'll have a better balance going and try to pay attention to what foods you are eating when you start feeling dead tired in the evenings so you can pinpoint the cause. Try that for a week or two and log some info, then you can use that to try and talk with your doctor about it more. I say try because most doctors don't have a clue and will just give you random advice, so you in fact may need to talk to a dietician specialist.

Lastly, if you want to be real sure, get blood work/tests done and see if you are having any issues with low blood sugar and/or any possibly symptoms of diabetes.

Good luck.
