> Here's my thing.. I guess when i get depressed I get this irritability factor. or maybe it's the way I get hypomanic.. But I get tense and want to be alone and I'm angry my anxiety goes up. basically I sleep which isn't not the answer.

> RaineeHave you tried any low-dose Depakote for that before? Depakote can slam-dunk your energy level and make depression worse, but it has worked miraculously for my temper spell problems. I just recently have found that increasing my Depakote from 250mg to 375mg has eliminated nearly all anxiety/hostility I previously got from Wellbutrin that was above 25mg/day. I'm taking 100mg of WB with 375mg of Depakote and the WB isn't bugging me. WB usually makes me quite hostile on its own.
