[QUOTE="JJJ, post: 367383, member: 1169"] Depakote is very good for mania and with the mania being surpressed, his downs might become more constant. Tigger was on Depakote for over 5 years. He has been of it for about 6 months. He is a much happier child since we weaned him. There are other mood stabilizers that provide a more balanced state. With the list of diagnosis that your son has, have you ever had him evaluated for Autism? Tigger could have qualified (and did) for all of those except Tourette's over the years and it wasn't until we got a formal diagnosis of Autism last year and got all of the professionals going in that direction for treatment that we saw huge improvements.
