I tried GABA, after getting sick and tired of all the serotonergic drugs I had been on, some time ago. It did absolutely nothing for my anxiety. I then read several papers citing that GABA couldn't pass the BB barrier. However, that seems to be questioned by recent research. I think Larry H. had a thread about it, if you want to search the archives.
I did find that Picamilon helped somewhat (GABA with Niacin to help it cross the BBB). However,it is not available in Canada, and I had to order it online (always risking it would be stopped by customs). It was also expensive. So I stopped using it and went back to the pharmaceutical aids you and I have already discussed!
O yes, I also tried Relora (which you can buy in Canada), it did absolutely nothing as well. Aaaagh the experiments I've used on my poor brain!
Good luck,
Jas
