Thank you. The descriptions of drug addicts are convincing. I won't worry about that part anymore.

My shaking is definitely due to Depakote - I was taking Lithium alone for more than a year prior to adding Depakote, with no tremors. I also used to take Depakote by itself many years ago, to the tunes of Parkinson-degree tremors.

I will use the migraine thing if it gets awkward.

As for medications to counteract it - if I am not mistaken, Cogentin works to counteract neurological side effects of anti-psychotics. Including tremors. But I have not heard of an anti-dote to Depakote-induced tremors, at least not from three doctors I have had. Does such thing exist?
