I gained weight on Depakote, but not on Trileptal. I wasn't on Lamictal long enough to know how it was gonna effect me long-term, but it was more activating/energizing and didn't seem to increase my appetite. The Depakote seemed to increase my appetite a little, but mostly I felt like my metabolism changed. I'm a middle-aged woman, and I also started having menstrual problems (long, heavy bleeding) on Depakote that has since resolved with an outpatient procedure and dropping the Depakote.
