> oh also, have you tried depakote? can you compare it to trileptal (e.g., is it as sedating, cause weight gain, stuff like that)? thanks!
Yes I was depakote but it was too sedating. So sedating I didn't notice the weight gain.
At first Trileptal made me dizzy and nauseous but it went away after two weeks. I lost the weight I gained on Depakote. It's almost weight neutral. It has the least amount of side effects of any meds I have been on.
