You would not need to discontinue lithium in order to take depakote.
My mother for instance, had a few short episodes where lithium alone was insufficiant, and rapid cylcing occured. In these instances, a low dose of depakote was added on top of lithium, and withdrawn after stablizaton occured. At this point, the lithium retained the stability.
