How Can Fatigue Along With Depression And Anxiety Be Treated?

My aunt is taking a large number of prescription medicines, I don t think they are helping her. Clonidine 0.2 mg 2x/day. Escitalopram 10 mg 1x/day; Risperidone 0.5 mg, am, 1mg, pm.; Levothyroxine 112 mg 1x/day; Donepezil 10 mg. 1x/day. She is tired, racing mind, worries, depressed and does not seem to be improving.
