So i was diagnosed w bipolar disorder type 2 and i was prescribed valproate, has someone already used and have anything to say about it? i was in my hipomaniac state when i used for the first and second time(yesterday and today) and it calm me down  lil bit in some parts of the day.

Also i use some opioids and benzos recreationally, it is safe?(sorry for the drug part, im just worried)
