I'm on 500mg/day regular (not ER) Depakote, along with 200-300mg/day Seroquel. First, I was on the Seroquel all by itself, but this only took away the top of the spectrum (racing thoughts, anxiety, etc). Then the depakote was added to act as an antidepressant. It's basically working. It does not make me drowsy at all, although it commonly does for a lot of people.
I would not see any reason not to try it. The bad side-effects usually only happen at larger doses (say, at least 1000mg/day). I am not extra-hungry or without a libido or going bald.
