From time to time I use GABA (Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid). see excerpt from eHow:

People looking for a natural alternative to antidepressants are

learning to treat depression with GABA. Its powerful effects have been

witnessed in physical and emotional conditions alike. However, users

claim GABA is particularly useful in treating mental disorders like

depression, insomnia and anxiety.

GABA is an amino acid that

occurs naturally within the body. Some people, however, do not produce

enough GABA or do not use the GABA they have properly. Disruption of

the GABAergic process is thought to contribute to instability of mood.
