Joanna,
I don't know about the increased appetite with depakote, but Valium withdrawal does take a long time. When I quit taking it in 1980, my perceptions of time and tempo were not right for about 5-6 weeks, as I recall. Tapering is a good idea.
Clonazepam is helpful and seemingly benign (at least in my body). It is the least addictive of the benzodiazepines, promotes good sleep, and doesn't leave me feeling dopey the next morning.
