Depakote has been extremely helpful for me several times for agitated depression. Even after the first day of it, I feel better, and after about 3 I'm pretty functional. I've been on 1500 a day since the last time this happened 4 months ago, and am wondering whether I should keep on taking it as a maintenance thing or just take it when I get freaky-- which happened about three times last year, but it was a high-stress year. (I also take Effexor XR 300 a day.) It does make some of my hair fall out, which is annoying.
