hey! You might be better served trying out Provigil, if your insurance will cover it...its milder than other stimulants, and less likely to induce psychosis or mood swings than other stimulants. I personally found that the peaks and valleys of Ritalin were simply the nature of the beast; that said, something like Concerta, Ritalin LA, of Focalin XR might help you avoid these pitfalls. I dont know what, if any, effects valproate will have upon ritalin-induced mood swings. Good luck!
