Brief Answer: Please follow the suggestions below... Detailed Answer: Hi my dear, You are saying to experience fatigue and lethargy. You are also reporting anemia in your medical history. Please bare in mind that anemia can use being fatigued and lethargic. Being anxious would also aggravate such symptoms. Therefore, I'd suggest to: - get your anemia treated - start treatment for anxiety/depression - drink more water - eat healthy - do more physical activity (including walking, jogging in fresh air) All the best!
