Cactus,
Just curious, what do you consider to be a low dose of clonazepam?

> Low dose of clonazepam, it has been an amazing mood stabilizer for me. I know your body doesn't like benzo's but the modafinil/clonazepam combo I have been on for the last 6 months has been the most amazing combo I have ever been on over the last 15 years.
