I felt much the same, but for a longer period of time (maybe you can be smarter than I was). There was a stress factor that maintained my total lack of energy - in my case (unfortunately) it was my therapist. When the pain was completely unbearable, I changed to a radically different therapist and started feeling better (i.e. having more energy) almost immediately. With this increased energy my therapist convinced me to talk to my pdoc about reducing meds. I took Lithium for 8+ years, but haven't had any in 6(?) weeks. Now I have even more energy.
Sometimes you need a change.
