Fatigue & Drowsiness after taking EFA's

I have very dry skin all over my body and It came from a past problem with taking too much omega 3. My diet consisted of taking 2-4 teaspoons of flax seed oil, eating salmon almost everyday and rice. That was practically it! I went from having oily, Acne prone skin to extremely dry skin on my face and body. I stayed away from EFA's for a couple of years because of it.

FFWD to a few weeks ago and I decided to start with EFA's again since I haven't found anything to help my skin. Took NOW's Omega 3-6-9 and woke up the next day with plump, soft skin. I took it again the next day and I had horrible fatigue for the next 2 days. I've tried other 369 formulas and they have the same effect on me. My skin will look great but I'll be so drowsy to the point of dizziness. Some EFA's(alone and all 3 combined) do not make me drowsy but then those have no effect on my skin. I do take MSM on a fairly regular basis but I've stayed away from it for a couple of weeks but it made no difference.

Does anyone know what's going on? Or have any recommendations on another vitamin to try? Thanks!
