My fatigue is also not a sleep all the time type. I feel like I could fall asleep at any time but struggle with insomnia too. My fatigue is more feeling like I won't be able to get to the end of a hallway before collapsing from exhaustion. Everything I do takes so much effort to accomplish. If I'm just regular run of the mill tired too the fatigue is so much worse.

I can so relate
Between the fatigue and the memory loss, I don't know which one is the worse. I hate ms for so many reasons. It's to the point where my bad days are starting to outweigh my good days. I put on a brave face and everyone thinks I'm ok but when I tell them I have ms they say "well you don't look sick". Umm what do "looking sick" look like? The fatigue makes it so hard to get out of bed and get the day started. The memory loss is aggravating as hell.

Does it ever!
MS fatigue makes me highly unmotivated to do anything. I think it's largely to blame for my inability to concentrate for long periods, and cognitive efforts make the fatigure worse. Taking naps do not help.Dx RRMS 2008/Kesimpta Feb 2023

I think everyone with ms does...
Lassitude is the #1 reason that people with MS are placed on disability. It is difficult for most people to understand that MS fatigue goes far beyond being tired. I tell people that it is like stirring a bucket of paint with your eyelashes- and ask whomever I am speaking to, to try and imagine being faced with that task
