[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 252503, member: 3444"] He's more manic than depressive, and I think Depakote is better for mania than Lamictal, isn't it? The way I understand difficult child 2's issues, they are more related to dopamine being off than anything else. He did trial Lamictal with Depakote last year, but that was when he was starting to pick at himself and was becoming more emotional during extended rainy periods here. From what I remember, Lamictal made him shak(ier) and gave him insomnia (just like his dad). psychiatrist's office just called back and said he wants him to try Stavzor. It's a new delayed release gelcap of valproic acid (Depakote). Of course, I still have a mega bottle of Depakote ER on hand... so if I could use that first, I'd rather do that than spend more money on this other stuff... Then again, they also have free samples I can go pick up tomorrow. Here we go... [/QUOTE]
