Starting a new meds after being off for years

Just starting Depakote 250mg ER twice daily. First dose will be at bedtime. Is anyone stable on 500mg daily? I’ve been on it before but was years ago. I can’t remember how I felt on it or the dosage, my memory is terrible. I may have had anger issues while taking it. Feeling depressed and think I’m having a mixed episode because I’m really anxious as well. Id really appreciate any feedback. Thanks in advance!!

Lamictal making me sick

I just started Lamictal 5 days ago. I have IBS and I was sick all winter and unmedicated for BP. Now I’m trying to rebuild my life which I have ruined and get back on meds. It’s been 3 years. Stared Remeron 15 mg and my stomach was better. Now Lamictal is tearing up my stomach & causing distress on 25mg. I lost 20 pounds over the winter and need to gain weight back. They want me to taper up over a month to 50mg and so on. I just can’t continue, it’s making me more depressed to feel so sick. I was on depakote years ago but don’t remember if I had any side effects. Im losing hope I’ll find a way to feel better. What works for you and doesn’t make you feel sick? TIA
