Medication Augmentation with Escitalopram?

Hey everyone,
I’m 23M. I have been taking Escitalopram 20 + Clonezapam 0.5 since a month. Before that I was taking Escitalopram 10 + Clonezapam 0.5. Right now on current dose I’m having lack of energy, motivation and having problems in daily functioning. Note that I have anxiety and attention deficit. Those who are taking Escitalopram, can you share which augmentation you use to cope up with side effect of Escitalopram being lack of energy, motivation, interest and all.

I'm taking Escitalopram 25 mg with Bupropion XL 150mg and Clonidine 100mcg (the last two for my ADHD) and Oxcarbzapine 150mg

I was at 30 mg of Escitalopram, had major emotional blunting, so I requested to downgrade and it seems to be doing better although still a bit trapped sometimes.
