Tranquilized: Since this is the first day off, try your best to give it a fair chance and tough it through at least three days, as just like the rest of the rest of the weening process, what you are feeling should improve rapidly over time. Depakote does have a tranquilizing / sedating effect, and this may be what you are noticing is absent--but stick with it a bit longer.
