    I have tried sertraline before and it doesn’t work for me. However I don’t have migraines problem but only anxiety and depression. I think you should talk to your doctor about changing the meds to the point it suits you .

    Everyone reacts to different meds differently . You really need to push the doctor to change meds for you in order to find the ones that suits you. That’s what I did . Hope you will be well soon
