Dizzy, headaches, depressed, jet lag, etc.?


I've been on Zoloft 100 mg for several months & have been okay, but for the past month or so I've been depressed & have been upping my dose to 150 & 200 mg. (My psychiatrist said I could if needed as long as I did it gradually.)

Recently I was on vacation out of the country for a week. My depression was worse, & I kept getting monster headaches & had even worse nightmares & insomnia than usual. The past few days dizziness has been really bad. I've been home for a few days, but I still feel terrible. I'm really emotional/upset (not PMS) & still getting horrible headaches.

Wondering how much could be jet lag & how much could be something else. I missed a day of Zoloft the other day, but I've never had bad effects from missing just one day. Should I cut back on Zoloft or chalk this up to jet lag? Not sure if I should call my doctor, psychiatrist, or counselor. I really feel terrible & don't know what's going on.

Also, allergies have been much worse lately (in case that's related).

Headaches can be caused by minor problems
like eyestrain, lack of coffee or more serious reasons
like head injury, brain tumors, encephalitis and
meningitis. Taking painkillers continuously can
have harmful side effects, so it is better to
modify your lifestyle. More information available at
