Have had a severe depressive episode the last 2 months. Yesterday, the pdoc switched me from Zoloft and Abilify to Celexa and Depakote ER. Does anyone have experience with either of these? I have Bipolar 2 and sure am hoping and praying that this med change will help.

I've never been on any of these meds, but both zoloft and celexa are SSRI anti-depressants, so I'm not sure if being switch will make a difference, but the change to depakakote should cause a difference because it's a mood stabilizer. I hope this med change helps
