In need of rest or becoming lazy?

Hi,

I've posted before talking about resting/listening to your body and took a relative rest day. But recently I have been feeling sluggish for several days, I've dropped some exercises and feel my walk and jog times are just getting worse. I wake up with no energy and my legs feel like tree trunks. My diet has not changed, get more than enough protein too. Have I over exercised in the past? (No rest days, just got more intense for 5 months) or am I just making excuses? I genuinely can't tell and am worried its just me getting lazy and a habit I get stuck in.

When I try and power through a jog etc. I feel like absolute death and not enjoying waking up with 0 energy whatsoever now
