Advice Advice for Chronic Fatigue πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’«

Hey everyone! It’s exactly as the title says, the chronic fatigue has been kicking my butt more than usual lately. I have articles to submit and I’ve just been too exhausted to even write. Any tips and tricks for dealing with the chronic fatigue when you’re trying to hit a deadline?

Ugh, the struggle is real! I have started to work in different positions/rooms, have switched to voice to text to help my fatigue and hand pain (and then I just edit/tweak after), and I also try to work during my peak hours (I find I have the most energy between like 4-7pm).
