I feel your pain that's exactly how I feel let's hope things get better sending hugsI was diagnosed about 8 months ago and still feel constantly exhausted. Even if I have a decent night sleep (which is uncommon) I will still end up waking feeling like I haven't slept.
It's difficult isn't it because everything then seems like chore to do.
I hope it eases soon!

This might sound odd but I find exercise gives me more energy, just a short walk to start with.Has anyone else had there energy just sapped, my energy levels have just gone before I was diagnosed t1 and still gone 6 months since I was diagnosed and tired

Well done age is just a number keep at it I agree I used to do 6 miles a day and a hour exercising I the houseSuffered all that post DX...and looking back had been for a while
Went LCHF
And the change reinvigorated me over time
Began walking, then a little gentle jogging
A usual bite before work was Greek yoghurt & blueberries
One morning, running late GY & BB.
I set off for train station..hoping to catch 6.33.
Broke into small jog, that lasted to the station almost
Actually caught the earlier 6.25...
Quite chuffed. hadn't run anywhere in a decade, and this was at almost 60.
It inspired me.
Tried C25K, and joined local gym, mainly for the running machines, but obv tried the weights, Nordic skiers, stepping machines, bikes & surprisingly my 2nd fav, the rowing machine.
I was reasonably older then most, but by no means the only oldie and certainly not the oldest...chap I'd say 70+ gave a good account of himself on most machines
Life in this ol' dog yet.
And sure there's maybe plenty left in you, if you felt able to start changing your diet/fuel input
