32nd Depakote Update - Feeling Okay
July 28, 2026··
taper update
Feeling okay. Been having bouts of appetite changes.
I am rather okay. Starting a new job today or tomorrow. A side hustle. I was worried about my performance last month but not this time because this side hustle is much easier than the previous one.
Depakote is still limiting my mood to exactly 5/10.
