Okay, I’m out of my anti-depressants until Monday at the earliest, and I’m really feeling the effects of it. The mood swings aren’t too bad, but some of the other effects, like nausea, muscle tension, vertigo, and headaches are awful. It’s bearable if I lay down and don’t do much of anything, but I’ve got a job interview bright and early Monday morning, and I have to be able to make a good show of it (especially since it’ll pay a lot more than what I was making before I got sacked).

I don’t see a question here.

I’d suggest you call your doctor. (And possibly postpone your interview.)
