Hard as it is, try and force yourself into a consistent sleep cycle. Like, I know you're tired on ALL of the days and it's going to be hard to force yourself to get up and do stuff when you'd rather stay in bed but it's the best way (ironically) to reduce your sleepiness.
Take your pills at the same time every day. Set a bed time and a getting up time and stick to it. If you're not sleeping much at night, allow yourself a nap between certain hours. If you are, then power through and try not to nap. It will be hard for the first few weeks but once your body is more used to it it will get better.
Not sure if this is at all helpful - it all comes from a 'how to deal with fatigue/insomnia' booklet I got given moons ago when I was doing either none, or all of the sleeping!
Also, I can't remember if you drink caffeine at all - but limit it to the first half of the day if you can :) As this will help you to get a more restful nights sleep.
If you find yourself very anxious at night then maybe try and write down the things that are going though your mind and put them all in a book to try and let yourself think of them for a short time, then put them aside for dealing with in the morning. Try to admit that there is nothing you can do about them right now, but they are written down so you don't have to worry about forgetting them, and can deal with them later.
Once they're written out, lay down and take a few moments to be mindful of your breathing. Take a few deep breaths and relax each part of you body. Close your eyes and breathe in and out slowly.
