Recently diagnosed (almost 2 months) here.
Does alcohol trigger mania for you?
I feel like since taking Depakote, when I'm feeling down, there's this urge to get drunk and when I do, I feel energized again, like I've always been (I've had few episodes of depression, lot of time hypomanic and few manic).
And I feel the same with others off the label CSN depressants.
Can't we ever enjoy being drunk again?
