Depakote lessening effects of LSD?

So I recently decided to try LSD. After taking a tab I started seeing intricate designs changing on a quilt, after that I noticed repeating patterns of lizards in the asphalt. After I went home my floor had waves in it and my chairs were floating. I was sort of disappointed by the lack of colors and CEV's. I also didn't have any changes in my thought process. Next day I dropped 2 tabs and the effects were noticeably less significant.
Is this what it should be like? Or is the fact that I take 750 mg Depakote daily causing the experience to be less profound? Because it seems to me that I will need close to 4 tabs to experience what most people describe from 1.
I would really appreciate anybodies input. Happy trippin

I have never taken LSD so I can't say for certain. Because it's not an ssri there's at least one factor going for you. Have you tried shrooms on it and was it weaker for you? Welcome to the Shroomery.

I stopped taking that shit when it made my hair fall out and grow back all fucked up and curly and thin. Screw depakote. Are you taking it for bi-polar or seizures?

My ex took that shit and it made her a crazy bitch. Oh and yes it won't allow you to trip. Also wait a week to dose again.

Depakote isn't an SSRI; it's an anti-convulsant/anti-psychotic.
It sounds like Depakote is altering your experience of LSD in a somewhat complex way. Your description of the visuals suggests that you were tripping pretty hard, but you report no alteration of your mental experience. This makes me think that Depakote is blocking some of the non-visual effects of LSD.
It's possible that you'll need to wait until you're done with Depakote in order to experience LSD.
You should know that Depakote and other anti-convulsant drugs have known dangerous interactions with LSD (e.g. LSD & lithium can interact to produce seizures in individuals who have no history of seizures). Upping the dose to bypass this interaction may cause seizures or other serious negative health consequences.
Here are a couple of links:
https://www.erowid.org/experiences/exp.php?ID=37002 http://www.bluelight.ru/vb/threads/648356-List-of-Dangerous-amp-Potentially-Unsafe-Combinations
If you decide to temporarily stop taking Depakote in order to use LSD, please be careful. Enlist your therapist's help to ensure that you are safe, and be sure that you're off long enough to clear your system (e.g. check the half-life). Without the help of whoever prescribes you Depakote I can't recommend messing with psychedelics until you're done with pharms...
p.s. Your 2nd day experience was probably inhibited by tolerance from the day before.

Let me deal with the secondary issue of this thread.
LSD builds a tolerance very quickly. You shouldn't have wasted those two hits. You should wait at least a week between dosages IME, but I would recommend a full month if possible.

Thanks for all the responses. I was taking Depakote to treat extreme anger outbursts. But recently I've been seeing a nuero-feedback expert who is providing supposedly permenant treatment. She said I should be off of Depakote soon and I'll wait till then to explore psychadelics further.
And I took 1g of shrooms once but I just felt giggly and when I closed my eyes everything would be a solid color. The only OEV I experienced was in the dark a tall dark figure attacked me and it freaked me out pretty bad.
I feel left out not being able to experience psychadellics how others do, but soon enough that should change.
