At the time it was Depakote. Eventually I went off the SSRI completely. While I appreciate what it did do, it also had some bad effects for me. I self injured on Luvox, which I never had done before and have rarely done since. I think I read somewhere in the tips section that SSRI's can be disinhibiting for self injury for some people. Or maybe there was some low level agitation that I wasn't aware of.
When I went off Luvox, I stayed on Depakote for migraine prophylaxis, then changed it to Lamictal, which has been good enough with less side effects (weight).
I guess different people respond differently to medication. SSRI's are supposed to reduce self injury and suicidal urges.
