Does anyone take Sertraline?

I occasionally have migraines with visual aura. By occasionally, I mean I can go years without one and had never previously had more than two in any one year. By the tenth day of taking Sertraline I had had 5 migraines of increasing severity. I then stopped taking it and had a further 3 migraines, then 2 aura without a subsequent headache, then they stopped. Some people find that Sertraline is really helpful, but I certainly did not. 

I had the same experience

Nice to know I'm not the only one! It was sold to me as being very well tolerated.

I'm not happy about this. I can get a more trustworthy and informed service from a street-drug-dealer than these quacks seem capable of providing with any consistency. 

They pushed Prozac in the nineties, telling us how harmless it was, and still when people try to expose the huge link between school shooters and Prozac, people just keep denying that the drug could possible cause you to be come revengeful and likely to plot an atrocity.

Since exactly that happened to me un the nineties, I tend to believe my own experience and I strongly disagree with the statement that appears in this thread "It's best to take advice from medical professionals, not 'people you know'". It's best to get as much information as possible before taking any new drug, rather than blindly trusting your doctor. Sorry, but that gets one of my super rare downvotes. 

We need something better than a cadre of barely competent medical heirophants handing out dangerous drugs like smarties to an unsuspecting and trusting public, because the medical rep handed them a leaflet, and gave them a freebie of some sort.

(I've spent a lot of time in different doctors offices doing I.T. looking around, whilst waiting for software to compile, and they are all jammed with advertising materials for the latest miracle drug (like Zopiclone a fiendish substance that appears to be destroying my friends wife and his happy and well earned retirement along with it). And they all hate the internet, because people are actually starting to check the REAL side effects as reported by other users on forums like this. 

O.K. Rant over..
