You wrote,[..makes me want to try...Depakote...].
It could be attractive for people in the state that you describe here to think that some other drug will help you out of the state that you are in. And many go that way to their deaths.
The addition of Depakote could cause your death I base this on that the ingredient in the drug could exacerbate heart irregularities along with the two drugs that you are taking, which could lead to an exponential increase in the chances of death. You see, when these drugs are combined, the effects are exponentially increased. This is why people taking opiate drugs can die by taking one drink of vodka along with the opiate. And worse, your judgment can be impaired from these drugs exponentially also and one could, lets say, walk outside when it is 20 b3low zero and freeze to death, or other things that with their impaired judgment, they could kill themselves.
