I know that anxiety isn't depression, but I have a sneaking suspicion that biochemically, the two may be related via serotonin levels.

About 3 weeks ago, I re-started having horrible anxiety after a 3-month break while losing weight. I'm not talking about a mental state alone. I feel like a worm on a hook, with my tummy feeling like it's being twisted. Moving around, chewing gum, or eating are the only things that help me deal with it, and none of those provides real relief.

I'm trying to elevate my serotonin by taking 5-HTP at night, followed in the morning by Celexa (as well as Buspar for the anxiety). This is not producing any noticeable decrease in anxiety.

Are there other neurotransmitters that might help me, such as GABA? Recently, I tried a supplement protocol to deal with my A.D.D. that was supposed to boost my supply of dopamine and epinephrine, and got no results from that.
