I would go with the Deplin first. I found that methylcobalamin (B12) worked against me. Cerefolin and Metanx both contain this substance. Deplin contains more of the active ingredient, L-methylfolate, and does not mix in other ingredients. Keep it simple for now.
Deplin, when used as an adjunct to standard antidepressants, can take as long as 2-3 months to show results. However, you may experience a brief "blip" improvement during the first week, lasting for a day or two. This might be a good sign, however there is still too little clinical experience with this drug / medical food to know its subtleties.
