In reply to Deplin (L-methylfolate) questions, posted by uncouth on February 5, 2009, at 11:48:25
> I'm curious if anyone is currently on Deplin, and what their experiences have been. I did a search through the archives and it looks like people have had varied responses. Specifically, how long does it typically take to work, if it does, and if anyone is Bipolar 2, has deplin ever triggered a hypomania?

I experienced mild hypomania a few days after starting Deplin, so I stopped it just in case. I tried it a couple more times after that for a few days each time, and no hypomania, but some mood instability, either more frequent swings or a mixed quality to my moods. I'm not positive it was the Deplin, but I'm not trying it again. I tried it because I take Lamictal and was having cognitive problems. Thought it might be folate depletion.
