You are on Stalopam & Lamitor which are antidepressants & mood stabilizer respectively. If you are on regular medication & still have started having sleep problem & laziness, it could be a part of depression.
Next Steps
Please consult a psychiatrist who can adjust the dose to make you feel better.

Try to follow a regular routine for sleeping and waking up. Avoid caffeine intake around 8 hrs before going to bed. Don't use mobile, tv, laptop etc half an hour before sleep instead do relaxing activities like bath with luke warm water or listening to soft music. Pattern breathing exercises may help.
