Tommy,
Aha! Depakote did the exact same thing to me as what you are experiencing now!! I was taking around 1250mg, and although it pulled me out of a worsening agitated hypomania, all it did was "zone" me out, and put me in a state of anhedonia! Like you said, I could be in a room full of people, and just...I don't know, not feel a thing. I eventually stopped taking it because I started losing all my hair.
I'm no doctor, but you may want to talk this over with your pdoc and get off this stuff. If you don't have any hypomania, what exactly are you taking a MS for anyway?
Keep me posted!
