I am tired...like... all the time.

Do you remember when your parents (or old people you used to know) told you that "When you become my age, you'll be exhausted!" or "The old bones are weary..." or "I'm old and tired so I'm not taking you to get ice cream"? Well.... at the ripe age of 26, I think I finally understand this concept of being old and tired. I'm exhausted most of the time (sidenote: I was diagnosed with exhaustion recently), even on days where I've gotten a full night's sleep the night before. All I want to do most of the time is sit or lay down on a flat or semi-flat surface. Whats worse is that this exhaustion makes very little chemical sense, at least to me. I'm usually hopped up on tons of caffiene, overly anxious, and my mind races like Cuba Gooding Jr.'s Snowdogs. So if I don't seem as high energy as I used to be... this is my reasoning: I'm old, I'm tired, and I'm not taking you for ice cream.
