I am chronically ill and tired as fuck all the time. What are some easily prepared healthy foods I can make or buy? Trying to eat really healthy but I'm too tired to make proper meals all the time and I just go without food and end up missing meals instead

Step 1: Get a blood test done for anemia

Step 2: Buy a blender, and a tub of whey protein

Step 3: Make high-calorie meal replacement smoothies with a protein, fat, and carb component

Protein ingredients idea - Whey powder, milk, plain yogurt, etc.
Fat ingredient ideas - Peanut butter, almond butter, coconut milk, etc.
Carb ingredient ideas - banana, frozen fruit, oats, etc.
Flavorings - cocoa powder, vanilla extract, etc.

I'm fixing my sleep too but it's hard because I literally get too tired to sit about 6-8 hours into the day but I have finally accepted that I might need to nap so that should make it work.

Don't nap.

If you really get so tired you can't sit up 6-8 hours in the day, you might have a sleep disorder. I'd advise seeing an AASM certified sleep medicine doctor, or whatever the equivalent is in your country.

If they do a sleep study, please ask for an in hospital one (where you sleep overnight at their facility), rather than an at home one, which doesn't provide as good of data.

For more sleep hygiene information I'd advise reading: digitalnoesis.org/sleep

Batch of chicken/rice.

I like the Jasmin rice from wally world. Microwave safe ceramic bowl - rice + water + 10 minutes stirring occasionally.

Skillet + sliced thin boneless skinless chicken. A little oil in pan. Chopped onions and those $3.50 variety peppers from wally world. Salt pepper to taste.

Mix in with rice and portion into Tupperware containers for 4-5 meals.

The home ones aren't as good as the in hospital, but okay. What did the sleep medicine doctor leave you with? Did (s)he have any hunches or suggestions for you?

Diet can play a roll sure. You might want to watch your carbohydrate intake. I'm not saying do keto, but, avoid simple carbs and eat things that give a more sustained energy supply like fat. You might also try intermittent fasting and see if that actually helps you energy levels. For me it helps a bit because I don't get the cycles of energy.

My sleep schedule was pretty fucked up when they tested me for narcolepsy. He just told me I didn't have narcolepsy and to fix my sleep, that was it. But it's not my sleep that is the groud problem, I've had great sleep for years, still tired as fuck. I was on melatonin for a while before I did his tests but had to come off it and some other stuff so my sleep was irregular at the time.

I would say if you don't have a consistent sleep schedule, that's a big mistake and to start there. You should go to bed and wake up at the same time. If you get to bed late, still wake up at your wakeup time. That night, wait until you bedtime and go to sleep then. A schedule is very important for getting a handle on this.

Diet and exercise is also important, but I think having a solid sleep schedule is really ground zero.

You need to check these boxes:
1. Sleep schedule
2. Exercise (at least walk 20min. per day)
3. Light exposure (make sure to get some sunlight during the day if you can)
4. Good nutrition (try a multivitamin, but really make sure you are eating well through actual food)
5. Happiness. When my depression is worse, I'm more tired. I don't have the answer to fixing this, but it is a major contributor. When I'm uninspired at work, I'm tired. When I get home and I get to shitpost or do something I like, I get more energy. Don't confuse being sleepy with being tired (see that link for more explanation), they are too different things.

Drink 8 ounces of coffee in the morning, take 500 mg of vitamin c at noon, and drink 8 fl ounces of coffee around 5 pm. See if that helps with your sleep.

Sorry, I wasn't phrasing it clearly. What I mean is that OP should eat some fruits in addition to his normal meals to get some fiber and vitamins, not that he should use fruits as a main source for calories.
