Catpar0865 September 10th, 2023

I am currently on Depakote and was thinking about switching back to Seroquel. Anyone have experience with this ?

Hello. How are you? Well, I do not know. Life is hard, sometimes. Hard choices. Well, I did learn a ton from a super interesting educational video. Not sure I agree with it, but it was interesting. Very thought-provoking, too much for my taste, but an eye-opener, nonetheless. I cannot give advice, but we can both listen to other points of view. I hope you make the right choice when the time comes to decide.

I've been on both of those medications - separately and simultaneously.

Depakote essentially made me feel like a zombie and I gained a lot of weight on it because of the increase in appetite.

Seroquel worked better for me because the side effects weren't nearly as difficult to deal with. The only real issue that I had with the Seroquel was that it sapped my energy some and made it a bit of a challenge to get motivated during the day.
