In reply to Parnate+excercise+clonzepam+caffeine: WOW, posted by superman on November 6, 2005, at 22:58:21
I'm not surprised by your success. All four of these are very effective. Caffeine is not bad for you as some people might think. It is an antidepressant and doctors used to prescibe it as such. The only problem is that if you take it late in the day, it can make it more difficult to sleep.
If this combo keeps working for you, and I think it will, by all means stay with it. In other words, if it aint borke, don't fix it.

My theory is the parnate ensured a good mood (compared to pre-parnate days), the clonazepam ensured no physiological anxiety, the caffein made me energetic and probably hade some cognitive benifits. The excercise I'm guessing had multiple benefits (energy level, confidence, cognitive benefits).
