Suggest Remedy For Feeling Sick, No Energy And Depression

Hi, I am a 42 year old woman and for the past few months have been feeling absolutely drained, no energy, feeling sick a lot and I just want to sleep all the time (which I can't because I'm so busy and also have a 5 year old son). I eat healthily, take supplements, try and go to the gym (when I've time, which lately has not been possible due to feeling so lethargic). I suffer from depression and am always stressed out, this has been my personality for years and years. I cannot afford to be ill all the time, what can I do? I haven't been to the doctors yet.
