    It sounds like you could be pushing yourself too hard and too often. I find that typically happens when I’ve trained hard for about 2 months without a proper deload period, where you continue to workout but reduce the effort by like 75%. Recovery is extremely important.

    Diet can have a huge impact on your recovery and fatigue levels. You might be lacking in the nutrition area so its probably worth having a consult with a Dietician - not a nutritionist.

    Also water, it can actually help with energy levels if you drink the correct amount of water that your body needs.

    Stick with it mate, your body with adapt in time. Just take it easy on yourself and give yourself small goals that you can achieve without specific timelimits. Goals like, I’ll go to the gym twice this week or I’ll get to bed by 8pm etc etc - nothing huge but its more behavioural goals rather than saying I’m going to squat twice my bodyweight in 2 months or something.
