Sorry about your daughter.
My autistic son developed seizures from taking Zyprexa a few years back. The Zyprexa had lowered his potassium to barely noticeable. As a result of continued seizures, he was put on Depakote for about 2 years. Really packed on the weight but we never knew just how much his mood was altered until they decided to take him off of it. It had been the only thing he was taking at the time because I was so afraid of giving him anything. So I am aware of it's affect as a stabilizer. He is now on Trileptal which has no side effects and has been good.
I'm hoping this Equetro can have the calming effect without making my depression worse.
