I began prazosin 2 weeks before I began taking Parnate. I felt somewhat improved during this time, although the improvement was subtle. I responded significantly well to the addition of Parnate within 10 days of starting it at a dosage of 60 mg. I then discontinued the prazosin for 36 hours as an experiment. I relapsed, and then added it back.

I am hoping that I can discontinue Abilify without relapsing. I am down to 5.0 mg. The next step is to take 5.0 mg every other day. So far, I have not observed any deterioration in my condition.
