Fatigue😭

Hi, does anyone have any advice on how to get used to the fatigue? I wake up each day more tired than the last and I am wiped doing simple daily tasks. I take magnesium daily which is supposed to help but I'm so exhausted with this both physically and mentally. I'm diagnosed a year this month and can't fathom being this tired for the rest of my life. How do I learn to get used to this?

Exercise. I know it sounds counterintuitive but the adrenaline and dopamine release will help no end. I also adhere to a diet high in fruit and veg and low in ultra processed foods. I try to cook as much as possible (my partner or I anyway) and I use a stick when I need it. I have colonised half of the sofa for rest and I have certain fatigue rituals

@Ellenmcc30 There is lots of advice on Google and YouTube for dealing with fatigue in MS. You may want to check out this video from Dr Aaron Boster, an American neurologist, who has several videos about dealing with fatigue: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HsZt6JXmtaE
