Hi,

About three years ago i took depakote for about three months. The same thing happened to me- i didn't notice that it did anything at all. i have DID . It didn't prevent or interfere with switching or do anything except i noticed that when i went on hikes i lost my balance on the trail easier. When my meds were out - i didn't bother to renew.

If you find that it's not helping enough you should ask dr for another. When you take Depakote you have to get liver function tests , that's a pain if it's not necessary and also means that it could be more risky? i don't know. but all meds have risks. Take what works and leave the rest.

Take care,
kerria
