In reply to Following up on my Depakote brain fog posts...., posted by becksA on April 24, 2006, at 8:40:02
> I have decided to go off the depakote because of the brain fog, and I have noticed several things. I really did not want to go off the Klonopin or even lower the dosage because it was helping my social anxiety SO MUCH. So far I have noticed a huge difference, my mood is up, brain fog is better, and even a problem I was having before, slight speech-slurring (I thought it may have been klonopin) is gone!) Is that really all possible with the depakote? The pdoc had said it was most likely the klonopin, but it seems like it's the depakote.
> Thanks!That's good news...congrats. Yea, i would have though it was caused by the high dose klonopin. It's rare that a pdoc will treat social phobia with only a benzo, i'm surprised he hasn't mentioned an maoi or at least another AD for you. Be careful, high dose, or any dose for that matter, Klonopin can cause depression. All benzos are classified as depressents. Good luck to you. :)
