ME/CFS exhaustion where the body won't shut down; sleep and routine advice useless

Summary

A Reddit user in r/chronicfatigue describes exhaustion where their body does not just shut down when they are exhausted, saying this is 'literally the whole problem'. A sleep doctor told them something similar about naps, which drove them up the wall, and they found the advice to do the same thing every night useless since they had already been doing that for years. No change in their condition is described.
