Male here, so might not be applicable: I felt like you described about a year ago. That was shortly before the big crash. I don't like the word burnout, but two naps per day, three to five cups of coffee and loads of sugar just to function is a good indicator your tanks are empty and you are running on fumes and stress alone. Its been a year and slowly reducing sugar and getting off caffeine for a month let me feel the deep tiredness again. I'm slowly gaining back the ability to even sleep through the night. If you can, reduce stress, keep sleeping as much as you can and cut off caffeine slowly. I stopped cold Turkey and it gave me a migrante so hard I nearly called an ambulance. What you describe is not normal and please take care of you.
Also way back in reddit times, there was a poster that had somediseases they only found because he started to nap constantly. I don't remember the details but I thought I might have that. 9 months of reduced work and stress and lots of sleep, I'm slowly coming back to my senses.
