It is a little hard to be 100% sure how much the Deplin helped me because I was also taking the lamictal and my life was full of insanely emotional events. However, I do think it helped some, particularly in terms of energy level. I have decided to stay on it even now that I have delivered because pdoc and I think it is likely that it is helping.
I also felt good about taking something (folate) that would actually be good for my pregnancy. I had had one miscarriage prior to the deplin and my successful pregnancy. My pdoc said that this can happen to people who aren't correctly processing folate (which is what Deplin is intended to address). Idk if i actually have that issue, though. There is a genetic test to determine whether you have this issue, but he felt it was easier and cheaper to just take the Deplin regardless.
Good luck. Keep us posted!
