Bipolar Disorde
"I been on the drug for about a month. I&#039;m getting off my depakote this month because of weight gain and tiredness. It&#039;s hard to see the whole effect of this drug. I can tell you that the drug makes you tired. I take 40mg at lunch and 40mg at dinner. It seems to be better the abilify. That drug made me gain 30 pounds and I couldn&#039;t stay still. It has just been hard because of all the weight I have gain from mood stablizers. I just hope that when I stop my depakote and only take geodon it will help me with my weight lost."
