Your symptoms may stem from medication side effects, residual depression, sleep disturbances, or physical issues like vitamin deficiencies or thyroid dysfunction. Report these symptoms to your psychiatrist as your medications might need adjustment. Consider a physical check-up to rule out deficiencies or other medical causes. Improve your lifestyle with a nutrient-rich diet, regular light exercise, and proper sleep hygiene. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) or mindfulness practices could help boost motivation and focus. Addressing these factors holistically with medical and lifestyle interventions can help restore your energy and enthusiasm.

Since u are already diagnosed with depression and schizophrenia and also taking medicines for that.
But this disease has it’s own course…You will feel this often..and to overcome this,you need to do physical activity daily for atleast half an hour,and evening or morning walk with friends/family will go a long way in inproving your symptoms of tiredness.Also,you need to add more fruits and salads jn your diet,esp green leafy vegetables.
Try this for atleast 2 weeks and then tell me about your progress.
All the best
