"depakote does wonders for me but have heard it&#039;s not well for others. i don&#039;t get many of the side effects except for the weight gain. but let&#039;s face it, why am i gaining weight? because i&#039;m not as stressed out anymore. i try and use it to my advantage being a weight lifter/exercise nut. which is also a good thing for someone dealing with anxiety and depression by the way. i do have to say when i want to read something i can without having to go back and read it over again because i just had 33 1/2 things run through my head during the last sentence. i&#039;m not saying it is for everyone but for me it is life changing. i hope this helps in your quest for finding the right script. i know it can be hell working it all out, but trust me you will get there!"
