This side effect makes individuals feel as if they cannot think clearly and have a hard time making concrete decisions. Confusion can progress to delirium in extreme cases.

Many individuals use tea tree oil when they are engaging in aromatherapy. This often means that they put some of the tea tree oil in a diffuser. Aromatherapy, including when individuals use tea tree oil, can be quite effective. However, inhaling significant amounts of tea tree oil or doing so for long periods can trigger side effects like vertigo. Vertigo is a form of dizziness in which individuals feel as if the room is spinning around them. Others may describe vertigo as feeling as if their head is spinning. In both cases, it is not a pleasant side effect. Individuals dealing with vertigo should stop inhaling tea tree oil and get some fresh air.
