Wow~! That is a new one to me...but always learning. I'm interested. Did he have to resume any meds after going off Depakote at age 18, or has he been symptom-free? I hope it is the latter!💞

He was off for about a month. I requested another eeg. During that test he had seizure activity and was put right back on 1000 mg of depakote. Been on it ever since. He is now 22 and living on his own. Of course I still worry about him all the time🫤. Now that he is older and working he is really feeling the effects of the medication especially the brain fog, memory issues and paying attention. I always thought it was just being a teenager:)
