Some people react to high folate amounts with emotional lability.

Deplin has a pretty high dose per tablet. 7.5mg.
Also high dose folate may severely mask low B12 levels.

I'd get a B12 serum level done...if it is below 500 I'd get B12 to go along with that folate. This is very important, because if you are low in B12 you can sustain neuro damage. Did your doctor test your B12 levels? Do you know what they were?
