I've been taking AD SSRI meds since 1995 - the whole spectrum - Prozac, Zoloft, Effexor, Serzone and Remeron. I think the Effexor combined with a nasty rapid detox off it a couple of years ago screwed me up somehow. SSRIs did not used to bother me like this.
I'm like you, I take a klonopin in the late afternoon, and sometimes feel OK at night. Tonight I feel pretty good, this morning I was just whacked.
This is a tough situation, hang in there with your Depakote and let us know how you are doing. I'm going to do the same thing here pretty soon.
