Jet Lag and Depression/Anxiety

I am in Europe for both business and pleasure for a few weeks.  I arrived in Berlin yesterday afternoon, and as soon as I got to my hotel room, I wondered what anti-depression and anxiety drugs I should take.  I fell asleep before taking anything.  At about 5 in the evening, I woke up and wondered if I should take the morning pills, which I had skipped because of the time change, or the evening ones.  I went with the evening ones on the theory that I had to get on the right time.

Today, I awoke really early and spent a number of hours having an intense talk with my son in my head.  It is a conversation I never plan to actually have with him.  So what a waste of time that was.  Additionally, it activated my negative thought process.  I need to remind myself that “my thoughts are not my friends.”  When I am awake in the middle of the night, I should occupy my mind with a book, or I will start to ruminate, and ruminating always take me to a bad place.
