I was on Depakote many years ago. It was a good med, mostly. I did gain a little bit of weight from it, but it wasn't outrageous.
Thank you! That is encouraging that Depakote mostly worked well for you. I don't mind a little bit of weight gain, just don't want anything excessive. I am also starting at a pretty low dose of Wellbutrin SR (100 mg once a day). I didn't realize you could start even lower than that. Hope it works for you! The XL worked for me within 2 days but I seem to react quickly to meds. I honestly am not sure why it matters if I take the SR daily vs the XL every other day but we'll see what happens.
