hi dear
I understand your concern.
Jet leg is kind of sleep circadian disorder.
Due to that it produce excessive fatigue and lethargy all times.
It is not kind of depression but due to change in circadian cycle of body it may lead to symptoms like depression.
It will resolve by its own as time passes.
This kind of condition can be treated with medicines like modafinil or R modafinil which can be useful for alertness.
Bright light therapy or caffeine may useful.
I hope i have answered your query.
Still have q query then feel free to ask.
happy to help you.
Thank you.
