Serious question guys. I made a separate post because I need help for those who have taken the medication because I've been on it for 8 years. I know depekote has good reviews. I've been on it for 8 years. My doc has me on it for 250mg. One in morning and one at night. I feel a bit manic right now so sorry. But I don't feel hyper. Ive been on it for 6 weeks for new dosage now my mind feels blank after my anxiety stopped a bit on its own but i still have high anxiety. Therapist told me hypomanic can be different for others. I just want to know what the deal is with depekote. Can literally treat bipolar? Im not feeling too happy with it at all. My doctor recently dosed it and wants me to take two twice a day. I'm not sure how many mg that is. Ever since then I've been feeling like crap. Staying up all night and sleeping all day. I know depekote can make you sleep all day. I feel depressed. Like meh feeling hard to describe. Sorry if it sounds like if my moods are changing. I've been learning how to control them. How does your depekote affect you? I feel like the 250mg twice a day is hammering me pretty bad. I want to stop it but I cant. It used to work but after taking the 250mg twice a day I feel more hypomanic than I do sometimes and sometimes I dont. Anxiety calmed down a bit. I just feel like crap. But I'm not hyper. Or happy. My mind just basically feels blank. Could that be from the meds? Thanks. Anyone else had this experience? Sorry if my post is off I feel like a zombie.
