Been on it a month (500mg), and haven't noticed any weight change. Dosage might be higher for Bipolar, I am taking it as simply a mood-stabilizer. Of course, I'm on Adderall as well, so my results are a a wee bit skewed (sarcasm).
In all honestly, though, when I was on depakote without taking some sorta stimulate (provigal, adderall), I was out for a goooood portion of the day. Like 10-12 and even 14 hours one day. So, the lethergy could have indirectly caused my weight to jump, but I had to get on something, else my daily living would have fallen to pieces.
