In reply to Spots on scalp when taking ADs, posted by rculater on September 26, 2012, at 3:58:11
> Whenever I am taking anti depressant medication, I suffer from 1 or 2 extremely sore small boils/spots on my scalp. They last about a week, dissapear, then re appear in a slightly different location but generally they appear directly in the middle of the back of my head just above the hairline and an inch either side to the right or left.
> When I stop any medication, the spots go.

That happens to me too, though all over my scalp. I pick at them til they bleed. It's my own personal method of self-injury.
I certainly don't recommend that, but truly, I wouldn't over worry about the spots, I'm sure they are benign.
