A member asked:

I'm afraid i might've had a stroke from depakote er. made me worry, would i ever be normal again?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Get this checked: First, Depakote has loads of potential side effects, but, so far stroke is not one of them. Second, if you fear you had a stroke, see your doctor asap or head to hospital er if this is very recent. You are best advised to get help and find answers to your current problems.
