just started Depakote and I want to know what side effects people have delt with most and how they felt on it. Will it be a noticeable change like I'm hoping? I've been suffering trying to find a medication to stop my mood swings and empty feelings and I really want one that will finally help
I really like depakote! It’s been kinda life changing as a mood stabilizer but I only know it’s effects paired with antipsychotics and antidepressants. It’s got a short half life so sometimes I take it and within a little while I’ve become noticeably calmer
Depakote is a harder psych med; it has the potential to deteriorate your physical health. I would just say to continue to keep up with your physical health. Make sure you an annual exam, blood work, and an ECG. If something doesn't feel right, speak up.
