i think people say depending on how severe the depression was typically be well at least one year before trying to go off meds.
however if you have recurring depression. each time your depression comes back it will come back quicker and worse, so if yours was bad before i would tend to err on the safe side and go at least 18mo before considering going off meds.

talk to your doc about the tiredness maybe there's something you can work out about that. (meds different time of day or maybe even lower doses, exercise routine, caffine, ADD med...etc. something else to help)
best wishes
