The klonopin (at this dosage) has been the ONLY thing that has helped my severe anxiety, so I don't want to leave it at ALL COSTS. If my anxiety goes back up, so does my depression, i can't make friends, etc. Is it possible the depakote can cause the "brain fogginess"?

Hi becksA,
I don't know what causes that, but I had it bad. Treated with hydergine and DMAE and its substantially better. I can tell when I forget to take the DMAE. The hydergine is longer lasting so I can't tell how much of it is that. Side note: From my response to DMAE my doc says NOT to take anticholinergic drugs, that I'm naturally already there, so maybe assess what you are taking. Good luck, that's really really hard to deal with. I hope it gets better for you.
