Reducing Depakote from 750 mg to 500 mg

Hi, I have been in a state of Anxiety, depression for over 20 yr. I am currently taking
Depakote 750mg day
Venal faxing 225mg day
Half beta blocker, not for heart condition, but to aid Anxiety
Zopiclone 7.5 mg bed time
I am quite tired during day, self a steam very low, Depression is still bad, and low mood.
Was contemplating reducing depikote by 250 mg to see if I get more energy ?
This was my main question, then I have seen posts regarding Lamictal, and good reports of this drug.
As far as I know I am taking the Depikote for depression/ Anxiety, as no Gp has ever told me I have Bipolar.
Any imput appreciated

Before adjusting with doses of medications, always talk to your doctor- especially if you are still struggling.  They will know what the best combinations to try to adjust to and it's important to be monitored with this type of medication.  Give your doctor a call to see what they will do- good luck!
