Members shared their struggles with caffeine having little to no effect on severe fatigue, with many finding that it sometimes causes crashes or anxiety instead of providing energy. Several members offered practical alternatives including short daily walks outdoors, fruit smoothies (especially with oranges), pre-workout supplements from health food stores, and checking vitamin levels like magnesium, vitamin D, and iron.
