i am having a really hard time right now wit hmeds. Pdoc put me on Depakote eight weeks ago to see how it would work with current meds. I am on Seroquel 800mg and Klonopin. It seemed to work fine. The only side effect she mentioned was weight gain. She DID NOT mention the issues regarding me being of child bearing age and PCOS or risk to the baby if I became pregnant. I addresed this with her on my next visit. I have been unable to afford meds since I'm unemployed and have no insureance. I went off Depakote for a bit because i was concerned about the pregancy thing (probably a bit of paranoia there) had a major meltdown last night and went back on. THEN I find out today that doc wants me off of it. Where do I go from here? I've tried Lamictal and Lithium - Lamictal I maxed out on with little success and lithium i couldn't get to a therapeuitic level- too many side effects. Please help! Hubby is at work all day and I'm scouring the internet about what else there is to try.
