Most people need to try a few antidepressants to find one which really works for them and which they can take with relatively few side effects. I had Sertraline 150mg previously and found that rather than helping me it caused a significant increase in my suicidal ideation. I now take Mirtazapine 45mg instead and the suicidal ideation has gone away entirely, of course I have other side effects (the Mirtazapine makes me drowsy and has caused me start snoring!) If you're reading this and your not getting a good response from your current medication, talk to your GP about changing to something else. Sertraline didn't work for me, but very well could for you, etc.
