Ack! I'm so sorry you've had such a bad reaction to the Depakote, Nightly.

were you on the "sprinkle" one?

No, wasn't on that one. As I understand it, there are 3 varieties. On Drug Digest it mentions "divalproex sodium delayed or extended-release tablets or sprinkle capsules." I was originally put on just plain Depakote/pill, so I'm assuming it was the delayed type rather than the extended-release that I've been on for so long. (Which now apparently isn't working.)

Don't we all just wish there was a "I'm a generally happy, adaptive and flexible and emotionaly stable person" pill?

ABSOLUTELY!!! And a one-size-fits-all so it didn't take so much trial and error! I'm very thankful for the psychiatric care I've received over the years but sometimes I do feel at least a tiny bit like a guinea pig.

Will be interested to see what your pdoc says.
